Starting To Make Money (Levels 10-20)
This is where crafting starts to get good, and it really doesn't take long to get to this point either.
The level 30 gear acquired can sell for decent money, depending on what you obtain.
Level 30 is the point when everybody becomes an adult and chooses their master class. Therefore people are generally more willing to spend Zeni on gear. The only item I would say that is guaranteed to sell are pieces of armor with Constitution, with 12 being the highest amount you can obtain.
If you are purchasing gear to dismantle, I suggest crafting at the weapons merchant next to the upgrade merchant on West City from now on. The Weapon Merchant here sells gear that can give either 03, 04 or 05 Materials. Lvl 30 for 03 materials. Lvl 38 for 04 materials and lvl 46 for 05 materials.

Continue crafting level 30 gear until you reach 15 crafting, then repeat the above process but with level 15 recipes (Level 40 Gear). Once you've then achieved 20 crafting (Level 50 Gear) we can move onto the next stage.
Two Paths (Levels 25-30):
At this point, you can make a choice:
Craft Level 60 gear, and reach 30 crafting in a shorter space of time
or
Craft 65 gear to give yourself a decent amount of resources (07 materials) once you reach 30 crafting.
The reason being that when you dismantle the level 65 gear made from the recipes you bought in Porunga, you don't receive 06 materials back. You instead receive 07 materials, whereas the Level 60 gear crafted from the recipes purchased in Fearland give 06 materials back. This makes it harder to level in the long run, as you'll be having to farm far more gear to dismantle or purchase far more items to dismantle. This is a pain in the ass for the moment but you'll have stockpiled 07 materials for when you've reached 30 crafting. If you're purchasing materials from vendors, then the best place to my knowledge is here in Porunga:

This can be very tedious as you'll be making far, far more trips back and forth than you'd like too. Fighter's/Dende's can add random strangers to your friends list whilst crafting, or place an alternative account of your own in a spot so you can abuse Instant Transmission & teleport straight to a Upgrade Merchant to disassemble your gear. I suggest Kokkara again due to how close the teleporter is to everything else.
You will receive the same amount of experience for crafting either level 60 or 65 gear, so it doesn't matter too much which option you choose. Either way this is the longest part of crafting and can become costly but the reward is worth it. Continue crafting either until you reach 30 crafting, and try to have fun doing so.

TIPS & TRICKS:
- Fighters or Dendes are the easiest to level crafting with due to Instant Transmission. At level 25 crafting you’ll have a far easier time than any other class, because once you’ve purchased gear to dismantle at Porunga you can Instant Transmission to somebody at the Upgrade Merchant, which saves TONS of time overall.
- Level 20 recipes and below you can craft as many items as you like until you run out of zeni, without the need to obtain more materials. You’ll receive as many materials as you used, or more than you used, when you dismantle the items you have crafted. You’ll need at least 3 stacks of blue materials and one stack of yellow to do so.
- When you throw away items (such as excess materials gained from dismantling items), you can drag and drop all the items you wish to throw away then spam click the “Ok/Cancel” window. This saves a lot of time, and a lot of clicks too.
