Don't think this works as the carriage ability is only during upkeep?

Try presence of gond and blood artist with {illness in the ranks}, and the {thornbite staff}, or if you can go to 3 colours {goblin sharpshooter}

Couldn't you just do this continually during your upkeep though?

Yes, because it can be used at instant speed. Or so I believe.

*holds hands up* my bad. I was under the false impression instant speed normally allowed only interrupt before or after, meaning you couldn't tap for the enchantment until after upkeep.

 {Presence of Gond} {Blasting Station} {Midnight Guard}
Is this a more efficient way of achieving the same, without lifegain? Only needs 3 mana, and only 2 are specific.

It probably is, but this combo was just something I stumbled on.

Tap guard to make token from Gond, guard untaps.
Tap artifact and sac token, 1 damage.
Tap guard again, untap artifact and guard, and get token.... Ad infinitum!
