I am starting a crafter character and thinking about tryingto doweaponsmith / BE combo and was wondering if you mine your own resources or buy them. The problem I am going to run into I think is I can master both professions but not quite have enough skill points left for vendors if I have surveying. So I am curious has to how you get your resources?

Both. With two characters and all of their lots, I still need more resources to keep up with my orders.

If there's some rare spawn metal on Endor/Yavin/Dathomir etc you're going to have to mine it yourself because the big resource vendors never go out there. If you have a lot of money, you can buy everything that spawns on the heavily-mined planets and plant harvesters on the other ones yourself.

I mine everything myself but if something really rare/excellent comes along I have contractors I can pay 4 cr/u for as much as they can harvest. It doesnt happen often but i have been known to declare open contracts when it looks like the stats are going to be the best the server will ever see.

both, i just want all the resources i can get, archi takes way too much
