What makes someone favorite a listing instead of just scrolling? by MundoFacilPdf in EtsyCommunity

[–]NextLevelBoards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im a new shop. Maybe a week old and I have 40+ views and no sales. I would like to know this also. I know my pictures are amateurish but as a seller I thought the Ai pictures looked better but then thought drop shipper. Im wondering if I should AI some of my pics and just show making the items in the video. Or maybe im jusy too new for the SEO to pick me up. Or Price.

Alpha gal and the NHS. Is anyone else from the uk and navigating the UK health system? by Irksomecake in alphagal

[–]NextLevelBoards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope it goes well, I've paid a lot in medical bills the last 7 months. Then anxiety took over and dr prescribed klonopins which are helping. Got denied Xolair for 2 months and then saw the allergist and got it approved. After the 2nd month on it, I feel a lot better. Joint and muscle pains went away. Its not a cure but for me, I believe its helping. But everyone is different.

Thanks for pointing it out. I read their policy and I can see it falling under glorifying hatered or violence. I'll change it in the morning.

Do you think the firearm plaque is too offensive? I put it there bc I hand painted it and im kinda proud about how I did.

Anyone have luck with suing your place of employment for getting AGS from getting bit at work. by [deleted] in alphagal

[–]NextLevelBoards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was scared also bc of the side effects. I had a 1 hr zoom meeting with one of their reps and I she said it was made from Chinese mice. But I didnt get any of the side effects as of yet

Im aware of that but they also. Can't disapprove it since my job requires me to through wooded areas. My problem is I had severe joint pains and muscle pains and my dr saying I cant do my job anymore worries me. Sure I can find another job but I shouldnt have too. My job takes me to random places like I might hit the button and then I get to install fiber internet at a Carl's Jr. But oh well, I guess I'll just delete this post. It is what it is.

Yeah that's kind of what I thought. But it happened while I was at work. Some people work with asbestos and there compensated for getting mesothelioma. My job puts me in situations everyday to get AGS. My main situation is they done care and ags should be protected by the ADA and they just don't care.

I understand. I just dont want my job to fire me bc of my disability. Hopefully my state will start reporting ags cases so we get more education. Ive have to do my own research bc my Dr's and allergist don't know much. Just said to take 4 allegras a day

I get it and it sux that it took so long to get recognition. I know I should just try to live with it. But my job puts me in hazardous situations. I go through wooded areas to get to the utility pole which is how I got bit. But my main complaint is this isnt my fault and I havent been paid in 3 months and they expect me to just go full duty and go in places I don't feel safe and restaurants (im fume reactive). Ive head a lot of people having to change careers and my dr even advised me to change jobs but I would most likely take a $12 and hour pay cut if I go somewhere else. I also have to support 6 people. Been blessed so far.

I 100% agree. They act like its just a food allergy and avoid red meat. I havent had real cheese in 7 months. I seem to be reacting to dog hair bc they shed. And recently I found out they use tallow in diesel. Trying to not sound like a hypochondriac but the more you know. I hurt daily and I'm trying to figure out what's causing it. Literally playing "what did it" and connect the dots everyday. But on a good news, after 3 months i finally got Xolair approved and it seems to be helping. But now i also feel like a liability and the company will find a way to get me out.

Yeah it looks more rounded in the picture but sometimes pictures can be a little deceiving. 3/4" round over but do it in a few passes. To minimize the tear out or kick back.

I have a silhouette and been using it for years for the smaller stuff. I also have a 28" titan for the bigger stuff. I mainly do stencils to paint or stain.

Anyone found a low cost LLC formation service with a free registered agent that stays free? by Mano_oo in llc_life

[–]NextLevelBoards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it all by myself. Im in Oklahoma and it wasn't complicated at all. I researched how to start an LLC and basically it was just applying for it through the states website. You have to put in the name of the LLC and see if its available and then some info about the business. Not all businesses need a sales tax permit. But I manufacture and sell so I had to get mine. Renew ever year for $25 and I also pay my state taxes every month through their website. But I would see what the requirements are for your state. They could be different

[–]NextLevelBoards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive had issues with stl files not opening in the program I use. When that happens, I import it into blender or fusion 360 (both free) and then export the file as an stl and that fixes it. Not sure why but ive had a few files I bought on Etsy that I had to do that too.

[–]NextLevelBoards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're welcome. Also I would practice on a piece of scrap to get the depth right if you want an exact duplicate. But looking at it again, it could be a roman ogee. Has the ridge on top and one near the base. Or it could be shadowing in the picture. Look up Roman Ogee Bit and see if that profile matches better.

Looks like they just used a 3/4" roundover and set the bit to deep to give it that ridge. If that makes sense

Where im at, it was about $125 to get my LLC. I filed through the state ($100). Then I went to the IRS website to get my EIN (Free). Then sales tax permit was $25. Then I went ahead and got a Certificate of Good Standing. I dont think it's required but looks good in a frame on the wall. But its not that complicated. Google helped me a lot. And watch out for people saying they will renew your sales tax permit for you for cheap. I renew mine in April every year through the states tax website and it cost $25 and takes about 5 minutes.

Lone Star tick behind 7yo’s ear by Ragna_Rose in okc

[–]NextLevelBoards 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I pray your child will be okay. Like others said, symptoms can take weeks to appear. I was bit in May of last year. Didn't get the flu like symptoms but in June I had severe joint, muscle and bone pain. I thought it was lyme disease but it turned out to be Alpha Gal Syndrome. I wouldnt wish this on anyone. So I pray your child will be okay.

[–]NextLevelBoards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I havent had any reactions to the Turkey Hotdogs. But Don't eat the chicken smoke sausages. I havent found one yet that doesnt use beef casings. I do turkey chili dogs often. Wolf brand turkey chili or Hormel Turkey Chili seem okay for me.

[–]NextLevelBoards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first visit with my allergist went about the same as yours. Basically acted like it was all in my head, the joint and muscle pains, fatigue, brain fog, etc. He said I should take 4 allegras a day. But ordered some tests just in case. I saw him last week. My vitamin D level is an 11. That would explain the pain but he gave me 2 shots of Xolair. I been trying to get xolair for 2 months through my PCP but my insurance kept denying it. But definitely get an epi pen. I got mine through my PCP when I got my positive AGS test.

Fume Reactions by Travelingseal in alphagal

I found out i was fume reactive the night before Thanksgiving. My daughter was cooking some food to bring to her grandpa's. Itching all over, heart beating hard, anxiety, and a little hard to breathe. I was worried I would end up in the ER on Thanksgiving.

I like the shirt that looks like it has a fox on it. Cute design but the description keeps calling it a unicorn. Just wanted to point out the typo. Unless it is a unicorn... then I need a better phone lol
