Easy, easy...
Pour more magic into the aura, try and get it working better and more permanently.
Chorkinaan added more magic into the aura, and since it's power was going to be finite anyways, added a barrier that stopped stuff from moving until it was dispelled. Now it would work and do so with less nasty surprises.
Doktor Diabolical:
"Aha! Wonderful. Excellent for circuits. Now then..."
The bots Doktor currently has aren't suited to transporting ore. Using 2 +1 POT essences and 2 +1/+1 essences, Doktor Diabolical creates(-1) a large(-1) hauling(-1 or 0 for simplicity) bot. Miner bot digs out the vein, prospector locates new ores, Hauler brings dug out ore next to factory.

POT [1+2+2+2=7]
Doktor, not willing to use a lot of effort for a hauler, conjured a bot for transferring raw materials from miners to factory wholesale. Building from parts was the safer and more effective option, but this was not something important. Besides, it could be replaced easily once factory gathered enough material for making bots. Soon, first delivery of silver was sent into the factory.
Head northwest, form 2 essences.

Cuberac continued his travel towards the frozen lands and soon found himself stopped by the snow.It didin't feel too cold with his improved heating cube, but snow was no less clogging and landmarks were no more visible.
Place the knife and dish at other sacrifice points in the ritual circle made earlier. Place the stiletto at the focal point. Ensure the ritual luck coin is active.
Then, begin the ritual with Skelliborn, accepting any modifications or sacrifices:
>Grant the stiletto the animate modifier, and harden the glass that it is composed of.
>Place the Needle of Misfortune's effect onto the stiletto permanently, without the one use limit. Have it channel the removed luck into the caster for future use, if that does not impact the primary purpose.
Use 5 +1/+1 essences.

The Ritual began dangerously, as the liquid luck potion was instantly consumed by the flames, but also swiftly, as the ritual circle began drawing in extra power. It drew in power seemingly randomly, possibly due to nature of its making, but fortune was something Gambler had in spades. Almost instantly stiletto began moving around but the power was still weaving around it. There was a fair amount of work left, but the progress could had been seen more clearly due to an actual item being used as a target, and the progress was good.
send the treasure bird to loom for more treasure, then try to use the emerald to make essences
Seva sent off the treasure bird, but it seemed to have some trouble finding stuff over the mud. There probably still was some magic in it to block treasure bird's senses. The gem consistently transformed magic into plant magic but capturing and harvesting that magic proved impossible. It was very nearly raw magic, and Seva had no knowledge how to deal with that.
