Abstract
Abstract Advantages and savings from cutting lumber to final dimensions at the point of supply are discussed in this paper. Freight charges on waste and on the moisture removed in kiln drying are saved. In addition a lower grade of lumber can be used, and by cutting to size and shipping in bundles, the cost of handling is reduced and much less storage space is needed. The author describes various manufacturing processes used in the construction of wood frames for automobile bodies. Use of laminated woods has done much to conserve the timber supply because species of woods not previously used can be worked satisfactorily.
