Facility Consolidation Costs
Facility Consolidation Costs	Note 7 – Facility consolidation costs: In November of 2010, management approved a restructuring plan for our Furniture Components segment to move precision slide production from our Byron Center, Michigan facility to our other precision slide manufacturing facilities in Kitchener, Ontario and Taipei, Taiwan. The move, which was completed in April 2011, reduced the facilities where we produce precision slides from three to two and is expected to enhance the operating efficiency of our precision slide production capacity. We will continue to use the Byron Center facility, primarily as a U.S. sales and distribution center. As of June 30, 2011, approximately $191,000 of severance costs and approximately $1.8 million of machinery and equipment relocation costs from the Byron Center facility to the Kitchener facility had been expensed, mostly in the first six months of 2011. Additional severance and equipment relocation costs subsequent to June 30, 2011 are not expected to be material.
