Hey, I'm a huge fan of both oblivion and Skyrim, but play the game casually, and don't really try a lot of the things I could - like in oblivion.

So, could anyone explain how to smith things? Like, where do I find the supplies, what to make, whether it's beneficial.

I have 2 characters, one a Mage which is fun, and a nord warrior guy as my second.

What would be the best way to go with my Mage? I like casting spells to kill, but don't really understand things like binding, enchanting, conjuring etc. How do I do those things? And once again are they worth it?

And finally (if you've stuck with me this far, thanks!) does anyone have some tips for money?

Thanks for any help, much appreciated!
