Get 1 cut stone (2 sm. stones) and 1 handle. Craft them into a pickaxe. Go to Spire or Rockma island and mine as much iron as you can (15-20 is a good start). Make a fire and refine all the iron. This will bring your smithing up. keep doing this until you have enough skill to make a better pickaxe, then just like D3m0nicAngel said, make steel by crafting coal and refined iron and refining it (By the way, you should have made forge by now) and make lots of steel tools. Hope it helped. I can put it into steps if you want...
