dont let the DE thing vs novice WS or tailor or chef or...whatever throw ya, as a novice artisan new to game you have very little in the way of materials to start with in general the best way to start making money is:

missions or selling resources.

so if your in a hurry you let your harvs run and do missions to pay for them so you can grind what they collect. if you are really in a hurry you can get cross server lot trades sell what the extra harvesters collect then turn around and finance the other harvs and not have to do missions. there are several flavors of missions now so they arent all kill missions like when i started. this is the same advice i give all starting crafters and i have financed/helped more then a few to master. another point ot remember is if you focus your efforts on upgrading your harvesters to heavies and not grinding youll have even more resources to grind after selling half of what a heavy 13ber harv collects. the only real problem with being an artisan at that level is the lack of storage space. :/ thats when cross server lot trades help also. oh and factories make good improptu storage too input hopper holds 100 item.

oh once your master arty you can make a killing on half of what they can make assuming your savvy on tracking the right resources and getting a client base. powerups alone can make you millions in a month or selling high qual tools or 4ber harvs or 9ber wind gens so on. there are lots of ways to make money as a master arty but assuming you want to focus on DE it becomes a money balancing issue then.
