WASTEFUL CALCIFICATION (Production)

Description
This curious production cabinet was found in the dorms of the university, amongst the previous posessions of a (now expelled) student. The cabinet itself, while functioning correctly, only turns expensive, rare quintessence into common, elemental salt. Initially, university officials had no clue what to make of such a wasteful machine. When questioned, the student claimed that the cabinet was meant to be something like an art piece- a jab at the current alchemical order. Recreating the cabinet is quite simple. Although it is practically useless, some might take pleasure in having a replica of it.

[ as the description says, more of a joke than a real puzzle ]

It`s a very good puzzle! Although, the solution`s "wastefulness" (there was no loop) made me a little bit angry (sorry if I made a few mistakes, my English is not perfect...).

Really interesting puzzle! I normally hate these ones that limit you to a few tiny spaces, but this one was actually pretty col! Here's my 220/60/94 solution: https://imgur.com/FlsfWwI

Very Clever! Thinking outside a box inside a box.
I love it!

Actually, I already solved, but thanks for the reply ;)

isaac.wass: Thanks! Also, nice work!

kyojin_desu: It is definitely solvable. A tiny hint: this production cabinet isn't wasteful because it turns quintessence into salt - it's wasteful for a different reason! If you're just looking for the answer, click this link. [i.imgur.com]
The production cabinet clearly won't loop, but with this setup you can create exactly 6 salt atoms - just enough to solve the puzzle.

Ok, what am I missing? This puzzle seems unsolvable to me...
