As ald said, you can use the unsocket recipe... item + Suicide Minion
doll (transmogrify in your cube). I'm not sure if you get the
gem/rune/jewel back.
There are some pretty good "one time only" recipes for rare items, but
again you should save the ingredients for your end game items, and only
use them before hand if you are sure you'll have the parts when you need
them.
Rare torso armor + 3x hearts adds 15-20% life leech
Rare helm + 3x brains adds 40-60% fast cast
Rare weapon + 3x jawbones adds 2.5 cold + 2.5 fire +2.5 lightning damage
per level of the user
Rare weapon + 3x horns adds 5 damage per level
Rare amulet + 3x eyes adds 15-20% mana leech
Rare boot + 3x tails adds 40-60% fast run/walk
Rare shield + 3x flag adds 2.5 damage per level reflected when hit
Rare gloves + 3x fang adds 40-60% Increased attack speed
Rare ring + 3x quill adds 50-75% magic find and 75-125% gold find
Rare belt + 3x spleen adds 5 poison damage per level for 2 seconds +
prevent monster heal.
Enjoy
