Outstanding among the pieces of equipment of radical design is the hydraulic press which presses 12 4xl6-f.t. boards with each charge. The press has a huge, rectangular piston the same size as the boards, operating with water as hydraulic fluid; it was designed at the -fenex plant.

W. F. Stewart, sales manager of Pack River Tree Farm Products, which is distributing Tenex, said initial response to Tenex exceeded the manufacturer's expectations. "Customers have advanced hundreds of suggestions for its interior decorative use," he reports. "Ranking high among these are wall paneling and wainscoting, storage cabinets, furniture, automobile trailer interiors, etc. Do-it-yourselfers also are enthused about its ease of handling and working, so we are very pleased that we are launching the product during 1956 OHI promotions," he addec.

First shipments of Tenex were made to various branches of Kochton Plywood & Veneer Co., I,nc., Chicago, one of the largest firms in its; field and one that has pioneered distribution of various new building material products in recent years.
