This black and white film is one of a 1950-1960 television series Industry on Parade, produced by the National Association of Manufacturers; an Arthur Lodge Productions Inc. This is a single segment about laminated veneer and plywood. Trees fall as they are timbered. A crane swings a stack of logs into a pile (:40-1:00). The process of making veneer is shown. Thin sheets of wood are placed on an assembly line to make crates (1:01-1:28). A large log is debarked into thin strips to make veneer from. The sheets travel down an assembly line. The process of making plywood sandwiches is shown, alternating grains as the sheets are stacked with glue and moved through a press (1:29-2:30). A birch log is drilled down the center on a lathe. Continuous lengths of veneer are formed. Strips are welded edge to edge to form a large birch board (2:31-3:46). A furniture assembly line has wood veneers applied. School chairs are examined for quality (3:47-4:30). Large plywood sheets are formed for the manufacturer of Navy minesweeper ships to avoid metal detection. Large strips of veneer are cemented together with resins to form stronger bonds to make beams from. A laminated wood rafter for a church building emerges in the final process (4:31-6:15). Baseball bats are shown being manufactured from laminated hickory and birch at a bat company in Chattanooga. Bowling pins made of laminated wood move through an assembly line(6:16-7:00). Water skis are shown being made from bonded plywood in a press. The large sheet is then cut in three strips to form individual skis (7:01-8:05). Plywood is tested in an oven lab by the Western Pine Association. The temperate gauge approaches 1500 degrees. The finished countertop is shown, made of a tightly compressed board. Resin glues are experimented with at the Reichhold Chemical Company. Chemicals are loaded into Shippers Car Line Corporation train cars (8:06-9:30). The wall panels created using waterproof-resin for pre-cut factory-assembled houses are shown in production. Two men operate a saw that cuts a window out of a panel. Others drop the window frame into place and hammer as the panel moves past them on the assembly line (9:31-10:44). A mosaic floor of laminated wood is laid. Thin sheets of exotic woods are used to create laminated paneling. A long sheet of cloth is stretched out and the veneer arranged on it. Two women use hot irons to spot glue the wood to the cloth, which is then put through a Plycor hot press to permanently bond them together, yet letting it remain flexible. An executive admires the paneling in his office and his secretary, wearing a pixie haircut and 1950s neck scarf, opens the curtains (19:45-13:02).
