Bartolomé del Presidio eats Aether Channeler to place a +1/+1 counter; Sol Ring pays into a second artifact cast, which fires Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle to return Aether Channeler, which bounces Sol Ring back to hand on entry. The loop alternates between bouncing Sol Ring and bouncing the auxiliary artifact each iteration, keeping both pieces cycling indefinitely. Teshar commanders with a sacrifice outlet already on the battlefield assemble this in the mid-game, and the white-blue-black identity fits Aminatou, the Fateshifter or Zur, Eternal Schemer builds that tutor enchantments to protect the pieces.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Any artifact with mana value 1 or less that produces at least 1 colorless slots in as the auxiliary piece — Mana Crypt or Jeweled Lotus compresses the setup cost, while a 0-drop like Ornithopter keeps the loop alive if Sol Ring is removed. For the kill, Zulaport Cutthroat or Blood Artist converts the infinite death triggers into a table win; without one, the counters on Bartolomé del Presidio only matter if a pump finisher is already in play.
