Every Sol Ring cast fires Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle to return Scrap Trawler from the graveyard; sacrificing Sol Ring to Bartolomé del Presidio triggers Scrap Trawler to recur any zero-mana artifact, and sacrificing Scrap Trawler returns Sol Ring to restart the loop. The combo runs out of a Teshar commander slot naturally — white-black artifact shells that already run Scrap Trawler and Sol Ring find the fourth piece in Bartolomé with minimal deckbuilding cost.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Any zero-mana artifact — Ornithopter, Memnite, Tormod's Crypt — slots into the Scrap Trawler return trigger to keep the loop intact if the graveyard runs thin. Infinite counters on Bartolomé del Presidio don't kill the table alone; pair the engine with Disciple of the Vault for infinite drain or Altar of the Brood for infinite mill to close the game.
