EP 236: On Glass Adapter w. Zach Adams
We're back with another episode where the dynamic duo are back together. Carter and Cole sit down with Zach Adams, Founder of On Glass Adapter. Zach, much like others hunters, was frustrated with most adapters and equipment that were on the market notably the many pieces that were needed especially, specifically with your phone, when swapping adapters from one set of glass to another. This is when Zach fired up his 3D printer and started making prototypes which has now turned into a full fledged business. After extensive research, countless iterations, and months of design and field work, On Glass has developed an adapter that strikes the perfect balance between simplicity, size, price, and design–bringing even the most remote wildlife right to your smartphone.
