On this episode of The Riley Black Project, we sit down with Frankie from Trotec to talk about life on the road with the TroVan. Frankie shares how he’s turning a ProMaster into a mobile demo hub, traveling from Florida to Michigan, Miami, Atlanta, and beyond—bringing the Trotec Speedy 360 right to makers’ doors.

We dive into:

What it’s like running laser demos out of a van (yes, even in bank parking lots!)

Frankie’s transition from electrical engineering and defense contracting to lasers

The future of mobile laser education and demos

Why events like Next Level Laser Conference, Printing United, and Grand Prix are must-attend for makers

Real talk on AI design, content creation, and building your own niche in the laser world

This episode is packed with stories—from crazy Florida headlines to whiskey stone engraving to why content doesn’t always need to be fancy to work. If you’re into laser engraving, small business growth, or just love hearing unique maker journeys, this one’s for you.
