Haven't you thought about adding some white in here. I think that things like Puresteel Paladin and Leonin Abjuras (or how it is written, 3W, 2/4 all your artifacts gain shroud) might be a cool add to this deck. You might even replace the Llanowars for Birds of Paradise. But I know that adding a splash is always annoying.
Also is the Venser Jounal usefull? Bit pricy for me.
Besides that nice deck =D

Ok dude. Let me first congratulate you on recognizing the power of Artifice.

Secondly: You're doing it wrong. No offence intended, but there are some REALLY odd things here.

Blue is a nice colour to do artifact decks with. Green, is NOT. Green is probably the LEAST artifacty colour of the 5. Please, take White or Red, or even Black, just not Green.

Cards that are odd and shouldn't be in here:

- Uvenwald Tracker. I don't know why it's here, but if it's some kind of primitive removal, you could do better. Sorry. Definitely take it out. Please.
- Spidersilk Net and Accorder's Shield. I understand that you want 0-drop artifacts to speed up metalcraft, but honestly, there are better options. Neither of these do you any favours.
- Lifesmith. Just a weird card that will trick you into putting valuable mana into life you don't need.
- Venser's Journal. I don't like it, it's a hand-free-er, but there are far better (and cheaper) options, which only skip the life gain, which i bet you won't miss.
- Llanowar Elves. I understand ramp, but I'm telling you now, a well-made artifact deck rarely needs it.
- Darksteel Sentinel. This guy is indestructible. Whoopdee. Sorry, but he's exteremly overpriced for what he is.
- Memnarch. Memnarch is cool. I'll admit it. But not in this deck. You'll never pull him when you want him (being a 1-of) and by the time you've got that myuch mana, you should've won anyway.

But again the blue is nice. but there are some awesome card's you're missing out on. Some thing you probably want:

+ Etherium Sculptor. This guy makes your artifacts cheaper, and is an artifact himself. 4-of.
+ Thoughtcast. With the amount of artifacts you should be putting out, this became B = Draw 2. 3-4-of.
+ Tezzeret the Seeker. All round utiliy card for artifacts. Only downside is Planeswalker. 1 or 2 of
+ Academy Ruins. Just a nice card to have as a back-up for those removal heavy decks. 1 or 2 of (legendary)
+ Broodstar. I just think you'd really like this guy :)
+ Phyrexian Metamorph. All purpose clone. Always fun :)
+ Grand Architect. Nice ramp for artifacts
+ Vedalken Archmage. He just keeps refilling your hand! With Etherium Sculptors and a good mana base, you can be playing up to 7 artifacts per turn with one out.

Now after what i went through earlier, the only green stuff left would be Carapace Forger and Ezuri's Brigade. Both are acceptable in a metalcraft Deck. But White has a few things you may want to consider over it.

+ Kor Duelist. Double strike while equipped. Nuff said.
+ Stoneforge Mystic. A very nice card indeed, especially since you seem to be going for an equipment theme.
+ Steelshaper's Gift. Gets you exactly what equipment you want, when you want it. Speaks for itself :)
+ Puresteel Paladin. Again, Good with the equipment theme, and works very well to free up your mana.
+ Indomitable Archangel. A nicely cheap (ish) protector AND beater for your artifacts.
+ Auriok Edgewright. A 2-drop, the gives you double benefits with the Swords. Very cool indeed
+ Ardent Recruit and Auriok Sunchaser. I think these would be very suitable replacements for the forger and brigade, and are cheap to drop early on.
+ Dispatch. Awesome removal. No questions asked. Certainly beats tracker :P

Also, there are some artifacts you may like as well, that you're missing out on:

+ Bone Saw. i wouldn't reccomend it, but it's a 0-drop equipment, which i think you'd like.
+ Mox Opal. 0-drop AND a ramper! amazing. only a 1-of though (legendary)
+ Ornithopter. 0-drop creature WITH FLYING! Combined with the equipment here, i think you'll grow to like orni.
+ Paradise mantle. 0-drop equipment. ramp. replaces elves :D
+ Spellbook. Replaces Venser's journal.
+ Bonesplitter. A GOOD cheap equipment
+ Cranial plating. AMAZING damage output. You don't have to splash black btw :)
+ Sword of Fire and Ice and Sword of Feast And Famine. I prefer these over Light and Shadow (the effect is only useful once imo) and Body and Mind (it's not a mill, and 1 token isn't really exciting). FI gives you draw and higher damage, FF, gives you more mana. Note i left War & Peace. That's a goody.
+ Batterskull. Self-Equipping amazing equipment. need i say more?
+ Umezawa's Jitte. Arguably the best equipment ever made :D
+ Elbrus, the Binding Blade. Just for shitniggles :D

Anyway, Don't put in EVERYTHING i suggested. Pick and choose as you see fit, and remember, this isjust what I'd do, feel free to carry on as you are :) Nice job btw
