There are fun twists on this idea, I am currently re-playing Star Factory in which you start with infinite supplies of four ingredients and even the ability to make clones of those infinite supplies. The goal of course is converting those four (marble, gold, dark oak, ice) into everything you need and it's important to automate everything, don't make 64 sand, make a machine which makes 1 sand per second and leave it running forever. Don't make 64 glass from the sand, make another machine which makes sand but this time feed it into a furnace and fuel the furnace with infinite oak wood, now you've got unlimited glass. And so on.
