he quickening of innovation will be on display at BCMC this month, and, undoubtedly, so will be the uptake. Suppliers use this platform to launch new products, sometimes rather humbly. Art DePauw sold his prototype “automated” saw to two industry giants, Charlie Barnes and Dave Chambers, with Polaroid snapshots. And not all inventions are ready for prime time. Dick Rotto, scion of Trussway, praised Auto-Jigging at Louisville BCMC 25 years ago, but his company waited a dozen years to buy it—albeit a much advanced version. But this year’s best ideas won’t be displayed humbly, and many will be ready for prime time, making for record results.
