This is the companion podcast to the first ever glass and glazing industry blog- "From the Fabricator"- join Max Perilstein of Sole Source Consultants each month for interviews and details into the most important subjects in the industry.
NEW "From the Fabricator” podcast for you, and once again, I am super lucky to have extraordinary guests. This time out, we start with Brian Risinger, the brilliant owner at Country Glass & Mirror and also the current President of the Texas Glass Association. Brian is super sharp and authentic to the core. An interesting path to today, and then some really frank insights on our space and how to improve it. Fun conversation on all, especially the comparison of “The Shawshank Redemption” and our industry. Then I go overseas to talk with Tom Caldicott of Unity Search—fresh perspectives and thoughts on our world from a guy coming at it from a different angle. Given that Tom is extremely connected with some of the biggest and best façade folks in our industry, I loved hearing what's happening out there. I was on Tom's pod earlier this year and I enjoyed getting to return the favor here. Good stuff.THANK YOU!!FHC is shipping up to Boston for the AIA Conference on Architecture with product launches galore.

The latest From the Fabricator podcast is live with two incredible guests. I kick it off with James Hatch of Kovach. He and I may have chatted a bit over the years, but this was my first extended time with him, and I was extremely impressed. What he's done and the excitement around what Kovach does is something to behold. Great stuff. Then to a person and company that I think will be big in our industry and not for glass or glazing but improving the performance of our machinery. I caught up with Lauren Dunford of Guidewheel, and they have a product that allows that crucial visibility on how your machinery is performing. She's incredibly sharp and engaging and brought tremendous energy to the podcast. So I think you all will enjoy this episode a lot.

A new episode of the From the Fabricator podcast is out, and as always, more insights to share from very cool and talented people. I lead off with Pat O'Connor of the Glass & Metal Alliance. He and his group have a big show in Atlantic City at the end of the month. (See below for a link). Pat is a fascinating guy who, thankfully, landed in our industry and is making a difference daily. He also has an infectious enthusiasm. Fun conversation and I think we're going to hear a lot more from him in the future. Next, I got to catch up with Ty Clem of Window Outfitters. A truly genuine guy who's doing it the right way out there. It was good to hear about, among other things- his moves, getting involved with IUPAT & AGMT, and which version of Van Halen was better- Sammy or David Lee Roth. Thank you for checking it out!

Welcome to the latest From the Fabricator podcast! I start with Nick Davy and Adrian Winoto of Smart Material company Andluca.

Very excited about their potential and it was an enjoyable conversation, despite me ripping on dynamic glass.

Fascinating and passionate guy whose company plays a significant role for tons of glaziers all over the US. They create and supply the apparatus needed for many to do work on the buildings – no matter how tall or what shape (like a Sphere for instance). Fun listening to the stories of solutions created in some really tricky layouts.
