45-49 isn't so bad. Steel Visors are easy to make and easy to sell, but you may lose a ton of money depending on the iron and steel prices on Odin. This would be a good time to either farm a ton of goblin mail/helms and break them down, or to go mining, or both.
Both iron and steel prices have gotten stupidly high on Midgardsormr. I am glad I'm not at this level of blacksmithing anymore *)
btw, iron chains sell for so little because high-level blacksmiths can get 2(possibly more?) iron chains per synth on HQs. A skill 80+ blacksmith would be able to crank them out like crazy. And they probably do, too.
