Hey guys in the Killeen/Fort Hood area...

Anyone know a good place to find used Fab tools such as a Drill Press, Air Compressor, Tube bender (good one). You know the general equipment that you will need when doing the majority of the fab work on your own crap...I have welder, though I do need a generator to power it. I know about Harbor Frieght, but anyone know anywhere else. I appreciate the help guys, hoping to start the BIG build of MUDMUT after the first of the year, but have to get the tools together to do the work before I start gettin parts together.

Try online with either Summit or Jegs. You can also try some of the shops in the area to see what they have or where to get it from.

Thanks Dwight, had not really thought about Jegs and Summit for Fab Tools, but will look at them while I am here. Thanks for the information. I really don't know of to many shops in the area that really do a lot of Fab work, but wil check with the one that I know does. BTW is the Offroad shop still open on the way to Lampasas

That is great I will have to make a trip out there to talk to him, I heard that he has some great prices on DOM tubing, I am going to need a lot of it I am afraid. Plus I am sure that I will have a ton of questions....I it will be nice to have someone local to talk to about it face to face. Thanks Dwight again for the information.
