What tools do you use to produce work of such high standard?

Well thanks very much for the compliments folks much appreciated,,,,,,, its about time I got to show my work to my fellow countrymen cause up until now I was competing with the Yanks.. About your question fossil,,,
I have been buying these specialty tools now since I dont know when,, and they are not cheap! I got all sorts of gizmos and contraptions,, and have made lots of hydraulic powered stuff to help things along,,, Trying to save on the propane gas bill is the hardest ,, If I can help it I try to do most things "cold",, but eventually even if I try to avoid it I have no choice but to fire up the forge,,, and start hammering ,, which incidentally tends to draw a crowd,,,, must be the sight of red hot steel that does it!
A bit of a list of what I use in my shop:
Power Hammer- Treadle hammer- 7inch bandsaw- 3phaseMIG remote feeder with overhead boom,,195 single phase MIG,, scroll formers, chaindriven/roller,,
oxy/acetylene cutters,, 12foot twister/acorn former,,5 heavy duty vices,,
sheet bender, guillotine, vintage poweredhacksaw,,quicksaw, 2hp drillpress,vintage anvil,, hydraulic 30tonpress,,metal lathe,, 20 ton pipe roller,, compressor and guns,, a few air tools and about a thousand chisels and wierd ass hammers, jigs,,forming stakes etc,,
I think I am gonna run outta space,, well anyway you get the picture!
