Default What tools for catectomy?

Want to cut and remove my converter myself.
Have an extra headpipe just in case I F it up or don't like the results.
What tools do most use to cut the pipe and remove the cat material?
I will have it welded back together once completed.
Plan on installing V&H power duals or rinehart slimline in the future.but gonna go this route for the time being. Any other suggestions for Headpipes welcome just don't want it to look stock in the end.
Thanks for the help.

Cutting wheel to open the pipe up,
Air hammer to pound away the cat material,
Die grinder to clean up all the slivers inside the pipe. Also plan on a screwdriver/chisel to sacrifice in scraping the inside of the pipe.
