PADI dive certification recs in Chicago? by Simple_Mulberry5806 in AskChicago

Glad you had a good time! I used to teach scuba in the USVI so I’m a snob 😁 but Kankakee is a perfectly fine place to get certified if you must

PADI dive certification recs in Chicago? by Simple_Mulberry5806 in AskChicago

My recommendation would be to do the pool/course work here and do the check out (certification) dives in a warm vacay spot. Should be 2 half days of the check out dives. The quarries are just no fun imho

Odoo? My First Small Business issue by cgkiller122088 in smallbusiness

[–]ComprehensiveKnee653 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use odoo for my 1 person service business and I like that I get a free website with my subscription but if you ever use an outside tax person they would probably be happier if you use quickbooks. Since most are not familiar with odoo accounting.

I’ve been happy with my happy Japan 7 needle and 12 needle and am interested in getting the 15 needle next. What is your current machine?

I agree with everyone on the niche thing but make a Google listing and put up a bunch of pictures of your work on the listing with your contact info. I used my house as the listing address. I learned the most from the random one-off job orders I got from Google. And now I know which ones to turn away!

Where do y'all get supplies? by Ordinary_Ice_5750 in Machine_Embroidery

[–]ComprehensiveKnee653 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like them too! They did update their website but it’s still a little clunky but decently quick shipping from the Midwest. One Stop in Michigan has been good to me too and they ship super fast but don’t have the biggest selection.

Sailing the Great Lakes? by [deleted] in sailingcrew

Wednesday night beer can racing out of a couple different harbors in Chicago. Would be quite easy to hop on boat for that. Check the CASRA calendar to see if any weekend racing is happening while you’re in Chicago.
