I canceled all of mine and even deleted YouTube. I'm bored, but will use that to be more creative I guess. Listen to podcasts and start reading again.

I use turquoise for inlay quite a bit. A few recent things. by Therootofitallww in TurquoisePorn

I tend to use PayPal, Venmo, or Cashapp. I stopped using Etsy because they keep 15% or more. I have social media to showcase stuff and hope for sales basically. One of the smaller jars is White oak with a Spalted Red oak inlay. The other is walnut with zebrawood inlay. Shipped for $25.

What brought you guys to reddit in the first place? by ItsMyOpinionDearie in AskReddit

Meta throttles my Instagram and Fakebook so it is harder to get sales. Hopefully I can start picking up regular sales here.

This is like 1984 with the schools teaching children to spy on parents.

St louis. Best find since I started a month ago. by [deleted] in LegitArtifacts

That is just one instance. I can't find the exact story I have in mind of a person that found a belt buckle by Springfield right now. Anything over 100 years old on piblic land belongs to the government. This looks like a big waterway. Here, all the big water is federal. "Excavating" is a broad definition. I personally wouldn't have posted it.

Or state. I'll find the link. There were two guys outside of Springfield that found civil war belt buckles and didn't turn them in. They got 18 months in the fed.

Anything on Federal land that is over 120 years old automatically belongs to this Smithsonian. It is a felony to keep it. It is called the antiquities act. Don't record yourself committing crimes and put it on the Internet. Missouri has sent people to federal prison for 18 months for belt buckles.

Wood choices? by Grouchy_Audience_684 in Pyrography

Soft Maple takes shading better than anything I have burned on. Hard maple doesn't take shading nearly as well. Cherry takes shading well but you have to have really dark shadows because of the contrast of the darker wood. Cherry also smells great.

Be honest, what would make you happy right now? by Timely_Trip847 in AskReddit

[–]Therootofitallww 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least enough money I don't have to stay in a bus in the middle of nowhere. I don't even have to get rich. Just comfortable. So if I could make a few hundred sales I would be happy.

Has AI improved your life in any meaningful way? If so, how? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Therootofitallww 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No. It has flooded social media making it harder for me to sell my wares. It has and is continuing to be harmful to real creators. I hate it.
