Mitch Kraemer was working in the restaurant industry in Denver when friend and fabricator Tim Omspach approached him with an interesting career opportunity. Omspach had just launched Vvolfy Metal Works and acquired Ludwig Goppenhammer's business model of fabricating aerial equipment. Even though Kraemer didn't have any fabrication experience, he took on the challenge. Fast forward a few years later, Kraemer now manages Vvolfy's eastern operations out of Detroit in a booming aerial equipment market. Kraemer joined host Dan Davis and co-host Darla Welton on The Fabricator Podcast to discuss all of that and more: His nontraditional path to working in the metal fabrication industry, learning how to weld, becoming part owner of a small business, navigating the growing aerial equipment market, moving from Denver to Detroit, the Meow Wolf experience, and the Yummyboy YouTube channel. At the top, the crew discusses the best places in the Motor City to get Detroit-style pizza (shout out to Supino Pizzeria, Pie Sci, and Michigan & Trumbull) and how the square steel pan was designed after the trays used in the automotive industry to hold small car parts.
