Smithing
Smithing/Smelting
To start smithing you need bars and a hammer bought from the general store. Find an anvil, for example in Varrock, use the bar on the anvil and an interface will appear asking you what item you'd like to smith.
Smithing items that require more bars at the same time will speed up smithing a full inventory of bars, but smithing arrowheads or bolts might be more profitable.
Below is a smithing experience table of the amount of smithing experience that you can gain from every bar you smith and the minimum level you need for smithing it. Full tables of what item you can smith on what level, how many bars they require to make and how much XP they will grant can be found on the bars' respective pages.
