Nice details.
For being called a "crafter" its kinda funny (sad) they can't without help at first level .
It's a Commoner + the list + retrain the one class ability multiple times + stuff like what you've posted.
They can help someone else making items, contributing time and/or caster level and/or exp, etc.
They can use any number of the tricks on this guide :

They can go to a town or city and have spellcasting services cast the spell, while the Magewright makes the rest of it.
They can make most generic skill booster items, and a few specifics in Bunkos.
With minimal investment they can make various psionic things.
The list itself, DavidWL took a look at back in the summer of '69, lost to incessant wotc board nukes.
