Tapes that are +3 and betterwill sell for 4 million a point all day long.50 million should get you squared away.
+1s and +2s are usually around 1 mil per point.... but unless you can wear lots of clothing, you might not make it with small tapes.
All depends on the market.

Item available:
Hat, bando, belt, undershirt, jacket, pants, shoes, gloves. Item count = 8
WS tool kit will give +3 and 1 avialable item so you need to make it to 17 with 7 items.
You need 17/7 or 3, rounded up, per item in expiramantation.
My recomendation is save up money and go after the biggest tape that comes onto your trade servers forum. If you can snag say a +5 for 10 million or so that will take you to needing 12 with 6 items to go. 2 points per item. That is, as the above post stated, far cheaper than buying large numbers alone.
I would make to good moves on +5 or so or better to get your self where you only need to clean up the occasional scrap.
with two +5 or better you will be 13 with 7 to go on 5 items. relatively cheap to do and you give your self the luxury of only needing a few low level ones instead of in the position of one itme left and needing like +7 to fill it.

Well the problem with the WS Tool Set is that i'm wearing a backpack with all resources. 
I would really like to that the Tool Set gets item space.

Depends on your servers economy and yes in the long run it is worth it to create weapons with higher condition and lower ham costs.

It really depends on your luck. I looted my +15 exp band. So I got my 11th point for 0 cr, which would otherwise cost like 40 million (I will never have that much money). The only bad thing is I cannot use it at the same time with the weaponsmith's toolset.

Who cares about the toolset when you have +15 on one item??? 5 +1 tapes aint that hard or expensive to get a hold of

I dropped 16 mil on a +8 belt and 18 mil on +10 hat. Then I just completed that with a toolkit to get +21 over all.

I got to +12 for under6 million credits. I bought a +6 exp tape for 1.1 mil (needed a +10 Polearm Dmg tape, which I got by sending out group mail to my 400+ customers - paid 1 mil). A retiring WS friend gave me a +5 belt (didn't know wookies could wear belts). My largest expense was a +3 tape which I paid 3.5 million for (offered to me directly). To that I added the toolkit, and a +1 and +2, both of which I believe were given to me also. I"d like to find another tape or two so I can get rid of the tookit. I have one article of clothing as yet unused and armwraps that only have a +1 so it shouldn't be too hard.
As far as looting WS tapes or clothing, I always though it would be impossible. Ironically, I recently looted a +4 WA sash. Though I haven't tested it yet I'm guessing I either can't wear it or it would take the place of the toolkit, so my probably once in a lifetime weaponsmith mod loot is worthless.

Yeah, I've spent a few million and i'm stuck at +108
Realistically i'd say you'd need at least 20 million to get 12 pts.

Most species besides the wookiee and I assume Ithorian can wear most pieces of clothing and about the backpack with resources, I don't have a problem wearing the bandolier since I hold most of my resources in factories and houses and I wear a mercenary bandolier when I'm in combat mode with rifles. I am one point short to being a +12 point and 1 point short to +110 assembly and 2 points short to +20 weapon repair with mostly +2's a couple +1's, the weaponsmith bandolier and a +7 belt I looted from a Sith Thug at the force sensitive village.

I have read that on some servers,rich craftersactually buy up all the skill tapes to prevent anyone else from becoming a "12 point".
