Auburn Iumber
(Continucd lrom Page 19) trical work and painting are subcontracted.
The prefab plant, or we should sey plants, are impressive. One plant concentrates on wall panels and floor systems. Another planl located across the SP tracks from the yard, specializes in roof truss€s. A third plant manufactures prehung door units. Everything is streamlined wherever possible. All nailing is done with air guns-even out on the job thanks to portable air compressors. Prefab trusses (plate and roller method) roll through the truss machine at a startling rate. Trusses are shipped in half sections, allowing easier handling and delivery, and are joined on the job by carpenter crews.
And the delivery end is smooth too. On a Chalet model where the foundation is in, the first load goes out early in the morning. This load will consist of all the first floor walls and partitions, and plywood for floor system. A few hours later the second truck arrives at the job carrying all the second floor wall panels and floor panels for the second floor. Early in the afternoon the third and final truck pulls up to the job loaded with all the trusses and plywood roof sheathing.
Average erection time? Eight hours from the time the first floor panel goes down to the slam of the front door! But that's just where the fun begins. We've all heard the phrase "control the sale", and that's just what Auburn Lumber does-right down to the ap' pliances and the drawer pulls on the cabinets.
The Alco Home Financing Plan will lend up to $7500. on a l0 year Chalet package. Only requirement is that the owner's lot must be free and clear. Plan ofrers LN/o financing even on property which is on long term government lease.
Auburn Lumber has experienced a valuable lesson in the power of advertising too. Thousands of people went through the model at the State Fair last year, and since then additional models have been built on Highway 50 in Auburn, another at Tahoe City (north end of Lake Tahoe), and still another at the south end of Tahoe. Regular consistent spreads in SUNSET magazine did the rest. Thousands of people wrote in for literature and thousands more have visited the models which are used as sales offices during the building months.

Ask any builder. It's pretty darned hard to sell a house without a model home these days. And we think Auburn Lumber has the right idea. Put the model out where everyone can see it instead of back in the yard where only your customers will see it.
Frankly, with their setup and the second home market continuing stronger than ever, it's our guess we'll find Auburn Lumber holding "two grizzly bears" by their tails when we stop by next year.
