We are bringing the Advertiser back in a Monthly format.

At BCMC in New Orleans people I spoke with agreed that the monthly format would be better. Many said that they didn’t want the Advertiser to go away. You can help by spreading the news!

Editor/Publisher Thomas McAnally tmcanally@componentadvertiser.com

The biggest benefit the Advertiser offers is low cost and industry wide coverage. Next comes fast publication turn around.

Affordable rates are more important to small companies and Thomas McAnally - Editor consultants who have no option other than expensive full print publications. It is with a new focus, renewed energy, and a mandate to carry on, we will give you our best effort! Here is to a prosperous 2013 for all!

Updates on the solid wood market in Canada and the US provided

December Lumber Market Analysis

by Keta Kosman December 21st, 2012

Years. This time frame will inevitably stretch out longer as imminent supply chain issues get worked out. Add to this the urgency of buying out of China in advance of that country’s own New Years break in February and you have an epic January looming.

As a result, lumber and panel prices will continue to go up in 2013, As 2012 drew to a close, commodities watchers and investment probably in the same ratios as they did in 2012. advisors issued a flurry of reports declaring lumber the big winner -- and Madison’s Lumber Reporter, which tracks North American lumber one to watch -- for 2013. Using ever-rising lumber prices as a basis for and panel cash prices every week, pegs benchmark WSPF KD 2x4 their conclusions, economists are touting solid wood producers as big #2&Btr year-end 2012 prices at US$362 mfbm, up $119 or 33 per cent, earners for this year. compared to 2011, which ended at US$243. Benchmark WSPF KD 2x4 What a lot of them seem to be missing is that although lumber and PET studs did similarly well, ending the year at US$325 mfbm, an $80 panel prices are higher than they have been since 2007, they are nowhere or 25 per cent, improvement over 2011’s US$80. In panel, benchmark near recent record-highs of mid-2004. Declarations of wood prices Oriented Strand Board 7/16” Ontario closed 2012 at C$335 msf, a doubling in the next year are likely greatly exaggerated. whopping $140 or 42 per cent, increase over the same period one year A continuation of the relentless increases seen in 2012 is much more ago when those prices were at C$195. likely. There is a serious supply-demand imbalance of North American Readers who may consider this striking would do well to remember lumber stocks. There is also a significant lag between customer needs that the recent record-high for OSB, in mid-2003, was C$703 msf, a level and producer ability to manufacture. Very few lumber producers are which was sustained for many weeks running. And Western spruce 2x4s prepared for sales to continue at these volumes. As December dawned, spent most of 2004 well north of US$440 mfbm. a latent sense of concern grew into full-blown panic as sawmills realized Canadian softwood lumber production and exports were up in 2012 they were already sold out into January. compared to 2011. Exports to the US were the highest since 2008, while A combination of unprecedented US ordering for the time of year, those to Japan were flat, and to China were down slightly. US lumber and similar volumes of buying from China in 3Q and 4Q 2012 as in 2009 exports, meanwhile, were also flat to Japan in 2012 compared to 2011, and 2010, were enough to actually prop lumber prices up at a time when while those to China were almost half. normally they would be softening.

Which means that the US is consuming its own wood products In mid-December, order files at the sawmills were well past New domestically, as well as importing higher volumes from Canada. This trend will continue at least for the next two years. Canadian efforts to foster a stable customer for lumber in China will not evaporate in the face of increased US demand.

Therefore in 2013, North America will produce more lumber than it did for each of the past five years, and Canadian export volumes to both China and the US will grow.

Due to the loss of sawmills, the decrease in timber harvest volumes, and the reduction in both log and lumber transporters since 2007, there will be a time lag between customer ordering and lumber delivery. Naturally, as a result, prices will continue to rise.

Cover Story: Our cover for January 2013 was provided by Ben Hershey at 4Ward Consulting Group. He says that credit really belongs to his past company Imperial Components/TruTrus. The project was in downtown San Diego and had a lot of firsts at the time. 1. They wanted to use 5 floors of wood framing over concrete retail and garage which had not been done up to that point in San Diego (circa 2004). 2. There were only 2 lane streets around the building and we had to stage each floor on the truck to be delivered and set by a crane set up in the street. There were several products on this projects; wood floor truss, wood roof truss, wall panels, and wood shear walls done with Simpson Strong-Tie.

Employee Safety Responsibilities

Talk with your supervisor about safety. If you have a suggestion to make a process or equipment safer, speak up! No one knows your job and tools better than you. Immediately warn co-workers and notify your supervisor of any malfunctioning equipment, hazardous conditions, and unsafe behavior in the workplace – someone’s life may depend on it.

All accidents and near-misses should also be reported to your supervisor because investigating these incidents can lead to a safer environment.

If you have a job-related injury or illness, promptly report it to your employer and seek appropriate treatment.

Hable con su supervisor acerca de la seguridad. Si tiene alguna sugerencia para mejorar la seguridad de un proceso o equipo, ¡no se quede callado!

Nadie conoce mejor que usted su trabajo y sus herramientas. Alerte de inmediato a sus compañeros de trabajo y notifique a su supervisor si algún equipo no funciona bien, si existen condiciones peligrosas o si presencia alguna conducta arriesgada: la vida de alguien podría depender de ello.

Debe notificar al supervisor todos los accidentes y cuasi-accidentes, ya que investigar estos incidentes podría mejorar la seguridad del entorno.

Si sufre una lesión o enfermedad relacionada con el trabajo, informe a su empleador con prontitud y obtenga el tratamiento apropiado.
