TryHardEnmity has created a guide for the new crafted items added in patch 1.0.7. He goes through fastest way of getting them, the potential of each item and crafts a few of them to show just how random they may get! You can also drop a comment in his dedicated thread located here.

Angry Chicken sorta does the same thing, but it’s slightly less effective and doesn’t have the speed boost. Maybe once my gear gets a little better. :) (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
What is Your Run?
I prefer farming Maghda for the crafting plans. Start on the City of Blood/ Lair of the Witch quest, pop over to BCM for quick 3-4 NV stacks, then from the Road to Alcarnus WP to Maghda's front door you're bound to encounter another 1-2 elite packs to top yourself up. Takes less than 10 min per run, could be done even faster if you're running on low MP setting.
This is the run that I am currently doing, but my personal goal is to get a crafting plan from every mini boss, just for kicks. Maghda has been a little reluctant to drop the plans for me, but I am running it with no Monster Power for now. How many plans have you all found by farming? (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

Interesting, I didn't think of farming Maghda that way. At the moment I just farm Cydea and Azmodan in the same run.

If you're killing those two then you might as well continue on and knock out Izual and Rakanoth while you have 5 stacks now that it persists through acts.
