What is going on with Trick Flow??

I have a number of friends in various industries who tell me supplies are running out. Plywood is getting wicked expensive, so is most lumber. Milodon hasn't had windage trays in months. My Gerst front end I ordered is behind schedule because they haven't been able to buy steel. It's the early days of an ugly time that we can expect to go on for another 4 years.
From the SE Tx Pneywoods. There is NO shortage of pine timber, mills have been running as usual, NO big China bug problem in the countryside. The shortage and PRICE is all BS! It is simply demand on lumber and plywood, IMO.
Shortage and problem with other areas like aluminum and foundaries and everything else, I have NO idea what the heck it is all about. Bu there is NO lumber shortage here!!! Maybe elsewhere, but the prices are way way up!
