Need direction.....advice.....

Ok here is my dilemma. Since I am getting back into turning this week, I have to make some hard decisions on what kits to start with seeing as money is tight.

Now when I first started I went with slimlines only, easy to turn, and cheap. I am thinking this time around to focus more on a little higher end kit. I am think of maybe the Executive Pen Kit from craftsupply.

I would still pick up a few slimlines to make, but fucus more on a little better kit and one that I don't have to turn away most of the great wood.

Other then the executive, what are a few others that are nice pens in the 8-15 dollar range kit wise?

Oh and if anyone has any spares they want to sell cheap, let me know..

Jr. Gent, Gent, Aero, Zen, Jr. Retro, Americana,Patriot, Sienna,

All are nice pens and are nice gifts and still in the reasonable price range.
If I were going to pic two different pens it would be the Jr. Gent and the Aero or the Patiriot.

Good Luck

Alan

Slimlines are my best seller. But I really like working with Wall Street II's, Sierra's, and Patriots.
