Matt; what are you looking for in the way of tools? you can make a lot of tools with old screwdrivers and a grinder (bench type), a piece of black pipe in a vice makes a good prism for bending, lock the work piece in with vise grips. There are some web sites that i've been to that can help a lot, from building your own mig welder to electic rust removal. I'll try to retrace some of my old web searches and get back to ya. 200mph tape works real good to keep fingers and knockles from bleeding so much.
