For the crafting, I can't see any way of doing it without spending a little bit of cash. I looked at possibilities for training it in f2p and I'm thinking that crafting tiaras is better than hard bodies. I did the math on it and figured out that the gp to exp ration for tiaras is 3.73 gp to 1 exp and for hard bodies at a 5 gp to 1 exp ratio. Tiaras are much more cheaper, though it may take a longer amount of time to do. Plus, tiaras are in pretty good demand on the Grand Exchange since people use them for runecrafting experience. So I am planning on doing tiaras to level 70. I'll take a look at holy symbols, too. They might be better than tiaras by quite a bit. Let me know if you see anything else that is good for crafting.
If you're patient, you could buy silver ore off the Grand Exchange and smelt it. It'd get you a bit of smithing xp, though not a great deal (13.5xp per bar). Plus you could do 28 bars at a time, unlike steelsmiths such as myself who have to do it 9 bars at a time.
Good luck, and congratulations on 81 cooking. You've shown me up quite nicely (70 here).

But thanks. I'm looking at silver ore for working on just smithing and not crafting.
