As Agra suggested, {Batterskull}. Quite brilliant, actually. As its a non creature artifact, your command can search for it and because of the germ token, you get a creature out of it (effectively)!

{Blightsteel Colossus} is always fun, too. Especially with Master Transmuter and other ways to play him fast in the deck.

{Karn, Silver Golem} and {Karn Liberated} both could be good in here, too.  {March of the machines} is global, Karn lets you pick and choose to your benefit!
I updated it again... What can i remove?  To add b-steel and b-skull?
Is {Wurmcoil engine} good?
I would consider taking out {Inexorable Tide}, since a lot of your plays will be cheating things into play, as opposed to casting. {Booby Trap} could possibly go too, since its probably gonna sit there for a while before it can go off (if it ever does). {Chimeric Mass} could go out for {Wurmcoil Engine}, just think about paying 6 mana for each; Wurmcoil wins if you ask me. Just some ideas.

Def taking out tide! I totally overlooked it!
Chimeric mass with {Energy chamber} and {Salvaging station} creates a decent loop for Arcum. Booby trap can go too.
Is  {Summoning Station} also removable?

Yeah, it's too costly I think. I'd keep the mass then (I overlooked that combo) and replace the station.

Updated. {Mishras bauble} feels useless, no? But with salvaging station its consistant extra draw
I feel like taking out summoning station for {Karn silver golem}

Yeah, I'd get rid of the bauble. If you want repeatable card draw, how about something like {Rhystic Study} or {Mind's Eye}? Maybe {Temple Bell} even?

Minds eye seems very useful!

I have a good feeling about this right now!

It's a great card! {Rhystic Study} is great too, making them decide between paying mana or giving you card advantage. The Bell is nice, since it doesn't cost mana to use, and puts a smaller target on your head than the other two. It's all about how you want to play, really.

I think ill build it and test it out! I might go for bell though... It could be more interesting in a multiplayer game.

Also i totally want to get out blightsteel with argentum armor and thornbiter staf on ;D

If your plan is to cheat things into play, why not some darksteel forge or akroma's memorial? If those are legal... Fun stuff
