I'm not gonna say I'm a master at Magic, but in my opinion, I think a side board with Mishra, Artificer Prodigy and Mycosynth Lattice may benefit your deck.
Mishra, Artificer Prodigy
(1)(U)(B)®
Legendary Creature - Human Artificer
Whenever you play an artifact spell, you may search your graveyard, hand, and/or library for a card with the same name as that spell and put it into play. If you search your library this way, shuffle it.
4/4
Mycosynth Lattice
(6)
Artifact
All permanents are artifacts in addition to their other types.
All cards that aren't in play, spells, and permanents are colorless.
Players may spend mana as though it were mana of any color.
I thought about the Lattice primarily because of your non-artifact spells and your island. The Lattice would also allow you to play Mishra which you otherwise cannot play due to the type of mana you run. If you wish to stay full blue and artifact, than a creature you could look into is Arcum Dagsson.
Arcum Dagsson
(3)(B)
Legendary Creature - Human Artificer
T: Target artifact creature's controller sacrifices it. That player may search his or her library for a noncreature artifact card, put it into play, then shuffle his or her library.
2/2
Arcum Dagsson allows for an easy way to get out your more expensive non-creature artifacts straight from your deck. I use one in my own artifact deck usually to fetch a card like Darksteel forge, making my creature indestructible.
Darksteel Forge
(9)
Artifact
Artifacts you control are indestructible. (“Destroy” effects and lethal damage don’t destroy them.)
I also noticed you were using a lot of (0) drop artifacts in your deck, another one that you may or may not have seen is "Mishra's Bauble", up to you if you wanna run it
Mishra's Bauble
(0)
Artifact
T, Sacrifice Mishra's Bauble: Look at the top card of target player's library. Draw a card at the beginning of the next turn's upkeep.
Just some other cards to keep an open mind about (like those)
Skeleton Shard
(3)
Artifact
(3), T or (B), T: Return target artifact creature card from your graveyard to your hand.
Arcbound Crusher
(4)
Artifact Creature
Trample
Whenever another artifact comes into play, put a +1/+1 counter on Arcbound Crusher.
Modular 1 (This creature comes into play with a +1/+1 counter on it. When it’s put into a graveyard, you may put it’s +1/+1 counter on target artifact creature.)
0/0
Voltaic Key
(1)
Artifact
(1) T: Untap target artifact.
