The amount of turning kits out there can be daunting, and so many require special hardware or bits to use. The kits I like to turn use threaded inserts to mount hardware to a handle, or have a tang that can just be epoxied into the handle you turn. There are TONS of kits available in this fashion and they’re a great way to make some really fun and useful projects on the lathe while you build up your tool collection and skills.
