Thanks for the input.
I don't belive there is a material supply problem, a climate control issue or a manufacturing process that I could not fix.
The issue would of course be maintaining the level of these things.
The wood is all from Canada, great lakes,ect....just sometimes it is the wrong lumber...what I mean is the stuff has to be bought 2-3 times a year and selected by someone who knows what to look for.
Shipping containers can be sealed, the veneer can be sealed.
Climate can be controlled.
Manufacturing processes can be implemented that yield 1000's of decks a day that don't degrade the wood as much.
Finishing techniques can be improved.
I just don't like being the traitor.
I have an ethical problem with what went on here with the people who left the U.S.
I do recognize the future consequences...and what might actually happen.
This is a hard question to face but with the info I have....in 2 years this stuff might all be of no matter.
It looks like these guys are consistently getting more contracts.
I might have an opertuntiy to actually take care of one fundimental flaw in the whole process and that is...the quality.
I just put this in front of you guys for opinion.
I am not going anywhere right now.

I would still like to know what you would think however.
I repeat I am not going to China, or Mexico.
