There are a number of items in the game that are rare. Some of those are rare by design, eg. aetheric cipher. Others are seemingly rare through an error (like the Khajit Brazier, Enchanted praxis). And then there are items that, while not common, don't sound like they should be all that elusive, but you just never get one.
For me an example of that last category are dwarven construct repair parts. I have never once had one drop for me, despite multiple hours spent in dwarven ruins chasing precursor parts, ebon wolf leads, and the like. If I hadn't seen them in guild stores, I wouldn't have believed they exist.
How about you?

Huh, so maybe that's where the ones from guild stores come from. I suppose they might not be dropping in dwarven dungeons because of some loot table error, then. I'm pretty sure the training dummy recipes that require them were introduced long before HoF, so the trial shouldn't be the only source...

They literally only come from HoF.
They were all introduced with Morrowind:

It's ridiculous the dyes you are rewarded for these achievments count as "common".
