Okay. Here are my thoughts on cuts. {Kuldotha Forgemaster} {Time Sieve} {Thopter Assembly}. They aren't that great without one another.
My issue with kuldotha and time sieve is that their ability requires you to sac quite a few artifacts, which is obviously where Assembly comes in. But without it you're forced to sac some valuables which is borderline for either of their abilities. As for assembly, alone it is just a reoccurring token fodder thing. I don't think it's worth it's mana cost.
Another card I'm wondering on is {Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver}. I've played her before in my deck, and at best she is just early board presence. I don't see a lot of creature heavy decks though, which is really where she shines. Maybe I'm missing something in that regard.
For the most part, I really love the build. My Sydri has more of a control build to it, but with yours I see things that are just really solid combos and plenty of ways to get them going. I want to wall game sometime. Other than that, here's some cards I suggest:
{Open the Vaults}- this one wrecks. Every deck runs artifact hate, and I'm sure you already know that. It's a pain. And I see you've already got a lot of stuff for recursion to compensate, but this one is a must have. Late game when your GY is overflowing with artifacts, drop this thing. Sure everyone gets the effect, but you're obviously the one who is going to get the most use out of it.
{Mimic Vat}- this is generally a good card. But with things like {Arcum Dagsson} and (I'm not sure if you're running it} {reshape} it allows a little bit more flexible fodder on those sacs. If anything you can exile your opponents fatty so that you can attack with it. It's generally a super versatile card. Note: I'm not sure if this works or not, but it's something I just thought of. Could you animate an artifact with Sydri and then when it dies imprint it? Because then this card just got ten time better.
Anyhow, let me look at my deck list and get some other thoughts going. I'd also love for you to look at mine. I've made quite a couple changes recently so let me get it reposted.
Thanks for the suggestions. I'm really working with this one.
{Leonin Abunas} might be fun

Already in there, buddy. Need the spot removal protection.
