IFPE 2014 a great ride for 5 days

Well, today is the last day for the IFPE Show held in conjunction with ConExpo/ConAgg at the Las Vegas Convention Center.  The show only takes place every three years and I can see why, it is massive.


The IFPE Show is a pretty big deal for the fluid power industry, not only in the U.S. but for the whole world.  There were exhibitors and attendees from everywhere.  It is impressive.


But the ConExpo/ConAgg Show is almost beyond belief.  It is so huge that I almost can't imagine anyone visiting every booth in the five day period that the show is open.  If you have never visited ConExpo/ConAgg, it is hard to actually explain the immensity of the event.


I compliment the Association of Equipment Manufacturers and the National Fluid Power Association for managing and hosting really one of the greatest events in U.S. industry.  It is an amazing five days and it seems to get better every three years!

Closing Out

 Well, this is my last week of my fluid power career.  I have thanked and recognized many people in my previous posts but I want to thank and acknowledge Scott McCafferty, Managing Director of WTWH Media and friend for hiring me 7 years ago and allowing me to continue my career in fluid power.  Thank you Scott for your support and confidence in me!  It has been a pleasure working with you and I wish you continued success!  I also thank co-founder, Mike Emich for helping me with my career.  Mike has been a good friend and a steady good influence on many sales people.  Thank you Mike! I also recognize Paul Heney with whom I have worked for many years on both H&P and Fluid Power World.  Paul has always been a very enthusiastic, creative, and energetic Editorial Director with many great ideas to help our audience and our advertisers.  Paul has also been a great friend for all of those years.  Thank you Paul!
