PSI vs Woodcraft vs Berea hardwoods

[goofydad]

I was wondering if there is a lot of difference in the basic kits these companys sell as far as quality, fit and finish. I by mainly at Woodcraft right now but I need to find a cheaper source so I can wholesale some pens at a more affordable price without sacrificing quality.

So who do you use and why?

Thanks in advance Dave

I have found little difference between the Woodcraft kits and these.

Altho PSI kits arn't bad, I prefer the Woodcraft kits.

I've found that the bushings don't match the metal bits, the mandrel is bent and the lead in the pencil kit won't fit the pencil.

Thanks everyone

I think I am going to place an order from Berea, I know a few folks that use them and looking at them closeer they have the screw top americans that I like for a reasonable price almost half of what woodcraft sells them for.

Thanks again Dave
