Typically used for furniture, cabinets, building materials and other decorative wood products, dimensioned wood products include: cut-to-

size blanks, edge-glued panels, solid or laminated squares, mouldings, turnings, bendings, upholstered frame stock, interior trim, millwork, staircase parts and component parts for cabinets, such as cabinet doors, face frames, and drawer sides and fronts.

Specified by thickness, width and length, dimen-sion products are classified into three types: rough dimension, semi-machined dimension or fully mech-anized dimension. Rough dimension stock consists of blanks cut and ripped to specific sizes, normally rough surfaced two sides or more to a nominal size.

Semi-machined dimension components are rough dimension parts that have been carried further in the manufacturing process, including: edge or face gluing, surfacing, moulding, tenoning, turning, sanding, equalizing, trimming, mitering, boring, embossing, shaping, routing, carving, etc.

Fully machined dimension parts need no ad-ditional machining to be done prior to assembly except for a final polish sanding operation before finishing or painting.

What to ask before buyingThe secret to buying dimension products is commu-nication. Tell your dimension suppliers exactly how the part is going to be used in your finished product. Discuss tolerances, specifications and quantities with your dimension suppliers. Ask them for suggestions to improve lumber yields, production efficiencies, product quality and ways to reduce costs – especially material costs. Since material costs account for over half of the total cost of producing dimension, the use of lower grade materials and optional species can re-sult in dramatic savings. Be sure to discuss alterna-tive solutions to meet your needs.

Dimension buyers also should specify the mini-mum requirements possible in order to maximize the

wood utilization and minimize their costs. To arrive at the most efficient cost, dimension buyers are en-couraged to specify only those faces and tolerances necessary to produce a satisfactory wood compo-nent product suited to the end use. All too often, a higher grade of material is specified than is actually needed. When this happens, it means the dimension purchaser is paying more than is necessary.

More reasons to outsourceOutsourcing wood components can oftentimes save money. It enables you to take advantage of other’s design and production expertise, thereby saving on the personnel and capital expenditures that would otherwise be required if you were to produce the parts in-house. Other benefits include: increased productivity, quality, consistency and efficiency; and it allows you to expand your product offerings.

A look at the top markets for dimension and wood components and what products are popular.

WCMA Study reveals component market trends

Overall, the wood products industry is looking good, with demand in cabinetry, furniture, retail fixtures and architectural millwork

all projected to rise over the next few years. This also bodes well for the components and dimen-sion manufacturers who supply products to these industries.

A recent survey of these manufacturers found more than half of the respondents supply products to the residential market, particularly in the cabinetry and furniture segments, with sales to commercial markets also strong, albeit to a lesser degree.

The Wood Components Benchmark Study was conducted online in the spring by the Wood Com-ponent Manufacturers Association, Wood Products Manufacturers Association and Woodworking Network. The survey provides insight into market sales, product categories, and business perfor-mance projections and other relevant information.

The residential market continues to be bolstered by new household formations and an aging popu-lation, demographics and replacement and/or re-

modeling of older homes. With survey participants able to select multiple industries, an estimated 56% indicated they provide products for residential cabinetry, compared to 40% for commercial cabinetry, while 51% targeted residential furniture and 39% contract furniture. Other top areas for wood components and dimension stock include: building products (34%), decorative/specialty items including musical instruments, caskets, toys, gifts and novelty items (38%), and industrial products, such as tool handles (8%).

Drilling deeper, when asked what percentage of overall sales were directly attributed to the individual segments, the average for those that selected residential cabinetry as well as resi-dential furniture was 57% for both. Next highest was building products, with an average of 40%, followed by contract furniture (28%), commercial cabinetry (27%), decorative/specialty products (26%) and industrial products (24%).

In looking at the type of components provided, cabinetry, in general, is the number one selec-

tion. With respondents able to choose multiple categories, an estimated 41% indicated they produce cabinet parts, while 35% specified solid wood cabinet doors and another 30% said cabinet doors made from composite panels. In alphabetical order, other products by category include: architectural millwork (40%), chair seats and parts (22%), closet components (25%) cut-to-size blanks (18%), dowels/round (7%), drawer boxes (28%), edge-glued panels (19%), entry doors/windows (14%), flooring (10%), moulding and trim (37%), RV parts (4%), specialty/novelty items (20%), squares/laminated (7%), squares/solid (7%), staircase parts (10%), store fixture components (15%), table parts (17%), tool handles and parts (2%), turnings (15%), upholstered frame stock (4%) and wall paneling (13%).

Welcome to 2018, a year that will continue to feature signifi cant changes in how we do business throughout this fast-paced,

ever-changing environment. From the increased workloads, to the often hard-to-fi nd employees that make our business great, we fi nd ourselves continuing to automate our plants to increase pro-duction and better serve our customers. Keeping up with technology is imperative to success and adapting to technological developments is a must for continued growth in the industry.

The WCMA Board of Directors closed out a busy 2017 year with a Strategic Planning Session held on Nov. 6 and 7. The purpose of this meeting was to discuss and identify the priorities of our associa-tion over the next few years. Four focused goals to benefi t our members were identifi ed and will be the basis for upcoming meetings to enhance the membership experience. These goals are as follows:

• Create a clearinghouse of information, a go-to site for educational items, events, and useful information pertaining to the wood processing business.

• Hold regional one-day events. It was agreed that the association will add one-day programs featuring new, innovative processes and products in a regional setting. This will give members and non-members in a specifi c area the

opportunity to take only one day out of the offi ce, and see new installations of equipment, as well as network with other members

• Develop a strong social media presence.Currently, the association has little presence and we feel this is necessary for the next generation.

• Recruit new members and increase mem-ber retention.

Featured Goal: Membership is still on the forefront of the WCMA as it takes members, new and current, to continue to make this a successful association. We need all members to participate in the recruitment process and help build our membership levels, including the next generation of skilled woodworkers.

We recently returned from our second WCMA European Tour in March which was held in Germany. The excursion started in Frankfurt and led to several other astonishing cities, includ-ing Heidelberg, Grunmettstetter, Wiesenbronn, Creuzburg and Aschaffenburg. We viewed many highly automated factories engaging in panel and wood processing, along with tours of the Homag factory and Pollmeier sawmills. The combination of the plant tours, networking with other members, and taking the time to see how other businesses operate was incredible. This will certainly help our attending members make those tough decisions with their company’s future growth in the technol-

ogy and manufacturing sectors. We cannot thank Homag and Pollmeier enough for their hospitality and time spent with us on the tours.

WCMA will be on display at IWF in Atlantaagain this year. The show is projected to be larger in size than in previous years, which bodes well for the wood industry’s strong comeback since the economic collapse. IWF will showcase some of the newest and greatest machines and products from across the world. If you have never attended IWF, I would highly suggest you consider making the trip to Atlanta; it will be well worth your time.

WCMA will hold its 2018 Fall Conference & Plant Tour Event in Wausau, Wisconsin, from Oct. 8 through 10. We have already secured visits to Kolbe & Kolbe Millwork, Menzner Lumber & Sup-ply Co., Weather Shield Window, Counter-Form, Wausau Homes, Kretz Lumber and North Central Technical School. The keynote speaker will be Guy Bucey, speaking on “How to Motivate Today’s Workforce by Aligning and Resetting Your Com-pany and Its Culture.” On Tuesday, Brad Cairns from the Center for Lean Learning will address the group with a talk on “Kick-ass Lean.”

On behalf of myself, Amy, and all members of the Board of Directors and executive members, Thank You for your membership and support. We promise to keep evolving to serve you better.

On tap for WCMA: More networking & educational opportunities, creation of an information clearinghouse, and a greater social media presence.

Each year, the WCMA conducts its flagship event, the Fall Conference & Plant Tour Event. The Fall Conference presents an excellent opportunity for WCMA members and non-members to network and have open dis-

cussion on common concerns. Attendees also tour the production facilities of several dimension, component, cabinet, furniture, millwork, and related wood-working companies. These plant tours provide attendees a unique opportunity to observe innovative woodworking manufacturing operations and discover new manufacturing techniques, exchange ideas, and learn about alternative manufacturing methods. Everyone comes away with at least one good idea that can be implemented in their own plants.

The 2018 WCMA Fall Conference & Plant Tour Event will be held Oct. 8-10 at the Hilton Garden Inn, in Wausau, Wisconsin. Tours of several outstand-ing woodworking operations are planned, including: Kolbe & Kolbe Millwork, Menzner Lumber & Supply Co., Counter-Form, Weather Shield Window Manufacturers, Wausau Homes, and Kretz Lumber Co. We will also be touring the North Central Technical School.

In addition to the plant tours, we will have two dynamic speakers. Our keynote speaker, Guy Bucey, will present on Monday evening, Oct. 8. Guy is a 33-year old decorated Marine who served two deployments in Iraq. After

retiring from the military, he took up woodworking as a therapeutic hobby and even entertained the idea of starting his own custom cabinetry business. In the summer of 2011, he joined Inova, whose factory is located outside of Albany, New York. The company designs and manufactures multifunctional, space-saving furniture, specializing in modern day Murphy-Beds. He saw the opportunity as a chance to learn the business side of carpentry and expand on his woodworking prowess. However, he quickly filled a void the company had in management. He was hired as an assembler, was promoted to team leader in subassembly, then supervisor and now leads operations for the entire facil-ity as the Director of Operations.

Guy’s presentation, titled “How to Motivate Today’s Workforce by Aligning and Resetting Your Company and Its Culture” will focus on developing workforce-right people in the right places to achieve a successful business. He will discuss elimi-nating the external excuses and focusing on how you, as the manager/owner, can change and adapt to today’s hiring and employment needs.

Our next speaker, Brad Cairns with the Center for Lean Learning, will address the group on Tuesday, Oct. 9. Brad’s talk, titled “Kick-Ass Lean” embodies the essence of Lean: what it’s all about, how to get started and the culture. He will share highlights from his manufacturing company, the chal-lenges they faced, and how they overcame them. Brad presented at AWFS in 2017 and was voted best speaker at WMS.

Networking with Tech Partners This year there will be two receptions and one sit down dinner, which will con-nect leading providers of woodworking machinery, equipment, supplies, soft-ware and other business solutions with WCMA members. WCMA members and Technology Partners also will have opportunities to network and share solutions to manufacturing challenges.

A listing of WCMA Technology Partners is on pages 12-17 of this Buyer’s Guide. These companies are a great source for all your woodworking machin-ery, tooling, software, and business solutions.

The WCMA Educations and Programs Committee has been working hard to ensure that there is something for everyone, so be sure to make plans now to have Plant Managers and other key personnel in attendance. Program details and registration for the WCMA Fall Conference & Plant Tour event will be available in July. For more information about participating in this event, contact the WCMA office at [email protected], or visit WCMA.com today.

2018 Spring European Plant TourThe WCMA held its second European Plant Tour event in March 2018, and it was a great success. Members and Tech Partners that participated in the tours all had positive takeaways. The event was sponsored for three days by Stiles Machinery, and two days by Pollmeier Inc.

WCMA President Steve Mashl, Valley Custom Door, stated “This was my second trip with the WCMA group to Europe and it lived up to our expecta-tions. We saw many highly automated factories engaging in panel and wood processing, along with tours of the Homag factory and Pollmeier sawmills. The combination of the plant tours, networking with other members, and just taking the time to see how other businesses operate was amazing. This will

Join WCMA at upcoming events, including plant tours, its fall conference and technology expo.

certainly help me in the future to make better decisions in our company’s growth in technology and manufacturing.”

Steve Gerber, Gerber Wood Products, added “I found the quality of the plant tours to be excellent. They offered a diverse view into the European philosophy of manufacturing by utilizing more automation and technology, replacing aging equipment quickly, and utilizing a wide range of wood composite materi-als. I saw levels of automation in action that I had often dreamt of but never believed were being applied in real woodshop applications. I left my week in Germany inspired and ready to apply aspects of what I learned in my own business.”

Overall, quite a bit of ground was covered during the week, and the group saw a variety of manufacturers – from high-end global suppliers, to local custom shops. The consistent method for their success was utilizing automa-tion to meet customers’ needs, production times, to work around an unreliable workforce, and efficiently produce the quality products customers expected.

Because of its success, the WCMA is planning a European Plant Tour event in 2020. If you were unable to participate in 2018, you will surely want to par-ticipate in 2020! Plans are still being finalized; be sure to check our website, WCMA.com for more information.
