I had the same problemo

1)a combination of dwarven bows and gold jewlery from the transmute spell.

2)also get the ancient knowlege perk for that lexicon quest in riften, combine that with warrior stone and a resting bonus.

3)potions and enchantments that increase smithing ability levels smithing faster. save the books for last if you can levels 90-100 are hard to do.

4)Buy training from Eurland greymane, then reclaim your gold either by pickpocketing or selling him enchanted weapons.

yeah mang smithing levels WAY too slow
