China consumes much of our lumber

It comes back as handles on your hammers. I know that much for sure.

Thanks for that bit of info.

To sharpen it a little, American Furniture manufacturers are shipping kilndried and properly procedssed lumber to China (and Bolivia and the Philippines?) to be used in the furniture manufacturing plants moved off shore.

Is that what you mean?
