Jeesh, this card can get out of hand fast. I think this card makes the rest of the set demand more shatter effects available to every color (namely R and W). Decommission and Grip of Regression played very well

I think this card is undercosted by 1 or the activated ability needs to cost a fair bit more.

Upping cost by one. Will still require more testing.

That does look terrifyingly strong. At least Kuldotha Forgemaster was a creature, making it a lot more killable. This is From Beyond but with the tutor every turn!

Sacrifice "three" artifacts not steep enough?

What about making one of the artifacts have to be itself?

A few other alternatives.

  1. Lux Cannon style use of charge counters.
  2. Explicitly Sacrifice three canisters

or just increase the activated abilities cost...

I don't think increasing the cost would really help. It makes the card harsher while still potentially oppressive. I'm also not keen on making it have to be canisters you sac.

Making one of the artifacts have to be itself would line up much better with From Beyond and make me much happier.
