Great Article

I enjoyed the article very much. It is nice to know that some things are still made by hard-working Americans.



I also wanted to mention that the floor in the Industrial Arts building in my highschool was made the same way. Rectangular cross-cut pieces of wooden beams, polished from years of foot traffic. I was told that it was done that way so if wood-working tools (or pieces of wood) were dropped, there was little/no damage.

Thanks.

Beautiful way to make a floor, isn't it?

Great industrial floor

4x4 timber cut 6 to 8 inches long. Hard or soft wood is fine. (whatever is cheaply abundant)



I have installed this style floor in the barn I built last summer.



- Easier on your feet then concrete, and more resilient to punishment and setting (won't crack)

- one of the best features is if a section becomes damaged replacement is very easy, just pull out the piece and replace it.
