Smithing is one of several skills in RuneScape Classic. It allows players to make armor and weapons to sell to other players or to use for themselves.
Unlike Mining, Fishing and Woodcutting, which are gathering skills, Smithing is a production skill. It takes raw materials obtained from a gathering skill, in this case mining, and makes something else. It is popular because it can make a profit, and lets you provide gear for you and your friends.
Smithing has two distinct parts: smelting, which is taking the ores from mining and turning them into metal bars, and smithing, which is taking those bars and turning them into metal items.
Smelting
Once you've acquired all the ores you need, you need to smelt them into bars.
Furnace locations include:
Below is a table of bars, experience, and ores required:
