I've been using this method for a while. Reach level 44 (which you have) and buy 5k rune essence. Although, with the new guild implemented a while back, you can spend a little time getting the tokens, crafting extra runes etc. Once I would get my 5k essence, I'd craft the airs, sell and bank the profits. After a little while I'd have quite a bit of extra money and just craft fires, they don't give any profit til the higher levels, which is why you use the profits, rather than the savings. Fires are more experience, and just about the same walking distance. I don't use gloves as they are annoying to get, and very time consuming to get the tokens for the recharge.
