New Developments At Rolando

Rolando Lumber Co., Inc., San Leandro, Ca., is incorporating a number of new improvements at its Cloverdale, Ca., mill and distribution yard.

Moulding and planer operations will be located in the same building when the installation of a new blower is completed early this month. Greater crew flexibility and packaging of more specialty items will be possible with this change, according to Helen D. Osborne, office manager.

Branding of the timbers with the Rolando mark is now being done at both the timber sizer and timber resaw. Harold Henderlong, mill manager, explains "After all, we are proud of the appearance of our fine timbers. We also have a new bag pro- gram in addition to paper wrapping and palletizing for uppers which is maintaining their appearance during storage and shipping."

New misting sprinklers are being installed which, according to Jeff Howard, timber trader, will do better than the conventional sprinklers in reducing checks and maintaining quality.

Lane Stanton Vance Lumber Co. and Custom Mills, Inc., City of Industry, Ca., have been sold to five longtime employees by company founders Vince Besinque, Skip Gregg and Jack Millikan. No price was revealed in the sale.

Doors Solve Renovation Problem

In Redmond, Wa., doors were the solution to a renovation problem that involved reducing the scale of an entryway while remaining faithful to the style of a oygone era.

Rednond Motors, a brick building built in l9l0 which had always been used as an auto body and paint shop, was to house a sports equipment retailer. So, not only was it necessary to restore the building-a way had to be found to fill in the spaces where the large garage doors had been.

Berger & Company, an international corrmodities trading orgarLization with 14 offices in ten countries, is proud to announce the opening of a new office in Sacramento, California to deal in . .

Western Softwoods, Agricuftural Wood Produets, Pl5nuood, Particleboard

To humanize the size of the garage door openings the spaces were filled with wood, glass, and double-hung Simpson Stratford doors. "I knew I wanted real wood doors," said Dave McClinton, an owner of the building, "because nothing else would be authentic for a building of this age." The doors, which feature clear textured leaded glass repeated in three vertical inserts set in vertical grain Douglas fir, seemed to reflect the same careful workmanship that characterized an earlier era.

We are also pleased to be a West Coast area distributor for CF&I steel products as well.
