The cost of plywood and all lumber has gone through the roof! My brother (a builder in AZ) went to metal studs a few years back. He is getting away from wood whenever he can.

We built a new house and moved in Thanksgiving of 2002. Glad we got it done when we did...

A news release last night: the construction industry here is facing a steel shortage. Some projects are delayed due to unavailability of structural steel products. Since we have a short construction season, those projects may be delayed a year. Who knows what will happen next year.
