Something from Nothing
Thursday, November 29, 8:30pm
Starting with basic raw materials and making something from nothing is a long standing Maine tradition as Made in Maine host Lou McNally discovered back in a 2001 episode featuring Coastal Metal Fabricators in Topsham, Paradigm Windows in Portland, and Pride Golf Tees in Gorham. All three businesses have since expanded, and are still going strong.
