ReagentMaker
Description
In short, with this add-on you can double-clic on a reagent in the tradeskill window to craft it, without having to scroll to its own recipe and scroll back. Very useful to make bolts of cloth, or milling and crafting inks, engeneering reagents...
It works with the base tradeskill window.
Instructions
Double-click on a reagent to craft enough of it to make one more item. If you want to choose the number of reagents to make, hold shift while double-clicking. Some items cannot be crafted directly in the tradeskill window (see Limitations below) and some reagents can be crafted in many ways, in this case another window will open on the side, in which you can craft what you want, using the recipe you want.

There's no use yet for First Aid, Archeology, Herbalism and Fishing. If you have some ideas, you're welcome !
Limitations
Due to the WoW Lua API, some actions have to be made using Secure Buttons. This is why some simple actions have to be made from the external window. This window cannot be shown during combat, but you should have other things to do rather than crafting complicated recipes !
You cannot (yet) use recipes from another tradeskill (apart from milling and prospecting). I know that it would be very useful to smelt bars more easily, and I'll work on it !
Thanks
Thanks to the authors of ReverseEngineering (now outdated) and GnomeWorks for some of the ideas, and thanks to the authors of findglobals to help me clean my code and avoid stupid errors. Thanks to ckaotik for the updates for MoP.
In the meantime, have you tried these ?

Panda would also be an excellent AddOn Choice for what you're trying to do.
On the enchanting tradeskill window, could you add the number of usable scrolls to the new button for enchanting directly to scroll? I believe OneClickEnchantScroll does this by putting the value of scrolls in parentheses, i.e., (20) at the end of the button text. Just food for thought as the button does work otherwise from the few times I've used it.
The recipe to make the reagent seems to be hidden, it is not makeable. Try to remove the filters on the recipe.
I do not have any filters up when I try this. I am simply trying to make the necessary bars by double clicking on the icon.
This won't solve your underlying problem : with the WoW api, the recipe has to be listed in the tradeskill window to be able to be crafted. As bars melting is made with the Mining tradeskill and Ebonsteel Belt Buckle is from Forge, ReagentMaker would have to open the Mining window, melt the bars, and reopen the Forge window at the end of the craft. I intend to do it, but doing it right takes time.
In Forge, ReagentMaker will help you crafting Grinding Stone, but not much.
Anyway, thanks for the report !
Also, which tradeskill did you use for testing ?
You can try to update it, the last few changes corrected lots of annoying bugs in usability.
Was using Tailor.

If you want to choose the number of items to craft, hold shift while double-clicking.
The add-on is still in beta version. It should be usable but there are some details to be cared of.
