Salvaging Operation.

Description of deck by it's author (quoted):
How about something a bit more reasonable, like a three-card infinite loop—where one of the cards is simply a land? Well, it's a better combo to play with… but it doesn't quite seem machinish enough for this week. But the combo needs a fourth card to win the game, so that helps. And one of the cards in the loop is March of the Machines, which is clearly quite machiney. And the simple combo is backed up by a redundant and overly complicated combo that's much more machinelike. Whew!

7) Salvaging Station + March of the Machines + artifact land = infinite birth and death
You have March of the Machines in play. Tap Salvaging Station to return an artifact land (or any other 0-mana or X-mana artifact) from your graveyard to play. The land was a noncreature artifact in your graveyard—but with March out, it enters play as a 0/0 creature. It immediately dies, and Salvaging Station untaps. You can do this forever.

How do you capitalize on this? Anything that triggers on an artifact coming into play (Arcbound Crusher), an artifact going to the graveyard from play (Disciple of the Vault), a creature coming into play (Genesis Chamber), or a creature going to the graveyard from play (Goblin Sharpshooter) will trigger once per iteration of the loop.

8) Salvaging Station + March of the Machines + Lantern of Insight + Mass Hysteria + Psychogenic Probe = infinite damage
It's the same thing as the last combo, but more complicated! Anthony suggested the core of this on Tuesday; I merely infinityized it. With March and Probe out, tap Salvaging Station to return Lantern of Insight to play. Mass Hysteria takes away summoning sickness so you can tap and sacrifice the Lantern to force your opponent to shuffle his deck. He takes damage from Psychogenic Probe, and Salvaging Station untaps so you can repeat the loop.

The rest of the deck is full of cogs—delicious, nutritious cogs—that interact nicely with both Salvaging Station and Disciple of the Vault.
