Being a Jor Kadeen deck, most of the deck's card selection focuses on artifacts. I didn't just want equipment because that relies on a lot of mana production to be able to both play and equip them each turn and requires a creature to carry it. What I wanted were artifacts that could do things on their own. The Scepter of Empires, Crown of Empires, and Throne of Empires set is a good example. With the whole set out I can whittle down my opponents life totals, maintain or build a decent collection of creatures, and control my opponents creatures as well removing attackers or blockers as I need. Cards like Isochron Scepter allow me to load it up with cards like Lightning Helix, Galvanic Blast, or Dispatch giving me access to ridiculous amounts of card advantage and repeatable removal every turn.

Since its an EDH deck their are as many tutors as I can find in our colors. For artifact tutors we have Godo, Bandit Warlord, Hoarding Dragon, and Kuldotha Foremaster. In order to help out Kuldotha Forgemaster we have both Thopter Assembly and Master's Call (which serves the dual purpose of activating Metalcraft at instant speed when tutored by Sunforger). We also have a few ways of bringing artifacts back from the yard in Sanctum Gargoyle, [Buried Ruin]], and Remember the Fallen.

Our primary tutor targets for equipment are Sunforger first and Elbrus, the Binding Blade second. Sunforger is insane letting us tutor up removal at a moments notice and turning any creature with First or Double Strike into an absolute nightmare. Elbrus, the Binding Blade is also a menace. If it gets through once I have a 13/13 with triple evasion (he can only be blocked by Black or Artifact creatures with flying and in order to be fully blocked they have to have up to 13 total toughness among all of them) on my side of the field. Since EDH is a multiplayer format his 13 +1/+1 counters whenever another player loses becomes relevant.
