Hello everyone. I'm new to turning and this site. I've been doing it about a month now and have gotten progressively better over that time in large part due to the information from the IAP. For that I thank you all.
I bought a clearance box at Woodcraft that had 30 basic slimlines and 30 blanks for $30. The kits were OK and the wood was blah, but it was a cheap way to get in some learning and by the end I improved a lot. I also turned a few cigars that ended up pretty nice. I'll post pics once I get a proper setup. My question is: What types of kits are "standard" builds that I coudl just set aside and one day sell. With so many kits and my rookie status, I'd hate to buy a bulk of kits that typically don't sell or mistakenly spend on expensive kits when I shouldn't. I also don't want to just assume slimlines is the answer. But I'd like to buy a bunch at one time so I don't have to constantly be buying one-offs here as I start my journey.
Thanks again for all the help so far. Hopefully one day I'll be able to return the favor.
