I can't remember what versions of Squeak have it or when they took it out, but I think it may have been at the 3.0 change over.  Try a Squeak 2.8 for an image that has Fabrik and is quite solid.

It shouldn't take more than a day (maybe a week if it's new to you) to get the 2.8 stuff working in a modern image.  Then there are a bunch of demos you should try for fun (and to shake it down).  At least two things should be completed that will take a bit more work:

Thanks Dan. I looked in 2.8, but didn't find it. Would it be under
another class name?
