I have been getting a few lately from PSI. The latest was a Majestic Squire and a Broadwell Art Deco. I bought 2 of each just to try something different. Happens that 2 of the 4 had scratches on the front ends. Looked like the way they were packed. Cuts in the plastic bags lined up with the scratch areas. Also the Squire had trouble when extending the ink - rubbing along the part where it gets pressed in. Cant sell those to anyone. A Stratus in Black Enamel from last week has some seriuos buildup of sticky matter on the enamel that was difficult to remove and wound up dulling the finish. Way too much money to be spending on this type of thing and the hassle sending them back.
I wonder about those of you who buy 50 to 100 at a time to make for shows. How many of those kits are not usable due to noticable blemishes.
Luckily I checked the hardware before doing any wood turning so I didnt have to waste a blank.
