Trade shows are a great time, lot of new innovation going on, tools that we've never seen before. I have to say my favorite thing to watch was at the 15:30 mark, where they lifted the concrete slab up with the foam product. Mainly just due to how in-depth their demonstration was, pretty cool to see! This video was simply to show the event in the case you don't attend, or maybe you're thinking about attending next year. In my community tab each year, I post links to World of Concrete and International Builder's Show for free tickets to get in, avoid paying the ridiculous entry cost.

As a concrete guy l can tell that there is a tone a new stuff l see in your video that l haven't seen or use l see similar but these was totally worth every penny

Love your content. Awesome background music. I'm from Lompoc and was a carpenter, mainly worked in Solvang (Hans Christian Anderson building) and Santa Ynez custom homes. Funny you mentioned tamping. It's a lost art and no one's does it anymore (Victory and Hause's)

@Matt, wild concrete Zamboni. A+ on thumbnail. 😜✌️

"This show is full of stuff that I don't need, but I want" Yep. That sums it up.

Amazing, and yet we still have no idea how ancient Egyptians were able to cut holes in granite 4 thousand years ago before the wheel was invented.

I was looking for you. I was at IBS. I can’t believe 2 days is not enough. I did not even see world of concrete 😢

@@MattBangsWood The Chinese booths are crazy, they copied everything, Schluter system, Hardie Backer. Slat walls. everything Simpson Strong had some really interesting new tools, I’m sure you saw it. The decking tools and the 1” lag bolts. Square D smart system. I was so impressed with GAF solar panel system. Next year I am staying a whole week and will print your picture on a T-shirt HAVE YOU SEEN MATT 😂😂😂😂

I love that it’s in January. That’s layoff season. Probably most of the blue collar guys walking around there are on unemployment! “Did you travel away from home for more than two days during this week?“ nooooope

The blades they were using are below, but I don't understand the dado-stack of them.. It was 2-blades. Could be a new product that just isn't released yet. www.grainger.com/product/799V54?gucid=N:N:PS:Paid:GGL:CSM-2295:4P7A1P:20501231&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAloavBhBOEiwAbtAJOzd4s8DRttj6wOCyFMxB8rScPAYIEqnnGYlytgYOH5qo5oSX3iTnQRoCLFUQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
