In this episode of Mastering Wisconsin Plumbing, host Ryan Boggs shares insights from the recent MCAA Prefab Conference, including a tour of a 100,000-square-foot shop with a dedicated R&D department and reflections on how 3D printing is reshaping the plumbing trade and education. Ryan also reflects on a powerful visit to Constitution Square in Philadelphia and the parallels between innovation in history and the future of prefab construction.
Then, Ryan sits down with Pete, a plumber whose career path has taken him from installer to designer and now to teacher. Pete shares stories from the field, lessons from design, and how he brings those experiences into the classroom to prepare the next generation of plumbers.
Stay tuned until the end for a teaser of next week’s episode on ADA compliance, where we’ll talk about how plumbing is about more than technical requirements—it’s about giving all users, no matter their abilities, dignity and independence.
