The Fab Shop L.L.C. has been manufacturing battery-powered tugs since 1995. Aircraft - Singles, Twins, Small Business Jets to 45,000 pounds. Recreational Vehicles - Fifth Wheel, GooseNeck, Bumper Hitch to 20,000 pounds. We also manufacture tugs for industrial use. We continue to sell steel, design and manufacture parts and equipment for other companies. Custom or production jobs, we manufacture hitch parts for a goose-neck trailer manufacturer. We also designed and built a machine for polishing worm gears for plastic extruding if you or your company have a special need talk with us we may be able to help.

The Fab Shop started selling steel, doing repairs and manufacturing steel parts for local customers. Wanting to expand and have a product
line of our own we began to build and sell Aircraft Towbars. Trying to help our customers solve problems with moving these aircraft Dwain Swick
with a career in Manufacturing Engineering developed a battery-powered towbarless tug in the 1990's for moving airplanes. This grew into the
expanded line of BATTERY POWERED TUGS we have today.

Dwain decided to sell the business and retire in 2005. So in January of 2006 Gene Glass took over ownership and operation of the company.
Gene had been FAA Repair Station Manager for a company in Wichita. Gene started his career in manufacturing in 1973 and has worked in
Assembly, Tooling, Detail and Assembly Planning, Manufacturing Engineering, Assembly Management and FAA Repair Station Management.
Dwain has decided to stay with the company and help out. Our other employee's have decades of
experience at design and fabrication.

We will continue to learn and improve in order to help our customers.
