MURPHY'S LAW

NUMBER 76.

THE STIFFEST PLANK ALWAYS GETS NEXT TO

THE BENDIEST ONE. n the other hand,

MICRO = LAM"J Law #2 states:

MICRO - LAM scaffold planking will have consistently uniform strength and stiffness. We guaran- tee it. Because every one has to conform to our tough manufactur- ing standards.

And every MICRO = LAM scaf- fold plank is proof-tested for strength and branded to certify compliance with OSHA.

MICRO = LAM engineered lumber is made from ultrasonically graded veneer, laminated under heat and pressure with waterproof adhesive. This patented process eliminates almost all of the flaws and hazards of solid sawn planks- splitting and warping are virtu- ally unknown with MICRO - LAM planking. And it cuts costs by lasting longer.

Available in any specified length up to 40 feet, up to 24" wide, and in 6 thicknesses. Immediate shipment. Write or call today.
