That skull piece is badass!
Sandblasting? That shit looks like it would be fun. I’m planning to get a cheapo gun and compressor at some point for some projects in the near future.
I started my own landscaping company last year so I didn’t have to punch a clock and so I could cater my work schedule to some health stuff I have going on. It was supposed to afford me more days off a week then on and instead went very much in the other direction

Government tech stays outdated. I remember trying to convince my dad(who’s a computer programmer in the defense industry) that he should get a smartphone. He told me “the most advanced weapons system we have uses a pentium 2”

We’ve considered this many times, but it is a TON of work and time, for a harvest of only a few threads of deliciousness per plant.
If you do get into it, keep us in mind.

I’m just reading and learning about it for now. Bit late to get the crocuses in but even if it turns out to be more work than is reasonable it’ll be cool to try once.

Its technically called grit blasting its more of like a fine metal. I did the same thing and started a landscaping company out of highschool so i know exactly what you mean lol. This job is friday-sunday 12 hour shifts and i love having 4 days off.
I use one of these 
Id say the most dangerous part of my job is easily using the overhead cranes. It can be a bit nerve wracking moving these big frames around 20 feet in the air with a pair of chains.

@TestOfOath Like with many things, opening my own practice was a bit of luck, and a bit of skill.
The luck part was me mentioning to my clients that I was looking for a space to rent, and then getting 2 offers in 4 months to share space with both a chiropractor, and a naturopathic physician. Getting into an office where there is an existing healthcare practice is huge for a new bodywork business.
Skillwise, I certified as an Orthopedic Rehabilitative Massage Therapist through a nationally recognized/approved continuing education provider (The program is online, and you can buy it in pieces so it’s not as expensive). DM me if you want more info about that.
And finally, after I had been practicing via word of mouth, referrals, and Groupon (OMG fuck Groupon though), I took the plunge and hired a marketing firm to help me grow.
Again, shoot me a message, and I can tell you EXACTLY what the marketing company did for me, because much of it is easy to implement on your own once you have the idea, and I’m happy to help!
