You may also want to read 'Psi-Related Gear' (chapter two of GURPS DF 14, pp23-27), although most of that is stuff that you buy or find, rather than make.
I'm not using magic items yet at my campaign. Players will have to discover the lost knowledge to create them so magic items can start to be created again.
I'm using Psi-Related Gear, but none has been found yet.

I'm not using Psi-Mana-Levels at the campaign but did you thought about using that "negative" psi energy? Can't remember the name or which book it is...
That could be used to explain that certain places have more of this energy and so hinder psi use, maybe with your explanation of crystals that produce it, akin to radiation and radioactive minerals. But for high and very high mana zones, I'm at a loss.
