A builder in bozeman MT is building a house absolutly 100% made in America and made ABC news by doing so. According to the news clip he couldn't find j bolts made in america so he ordered steel from utah and had a local machine shop buld them.

He has a list of the products he uses right down to the pencils.

Brings a little pride back to "made in America"
 
Re: House made in America, 100%, in Bozeman MT

That is really cool! It's amazing to think that...if contractors used only 5% more American made products, how many jobs would be created. What if they used 100% American made products?

It's truly mind boggling that we in America have the power to change the path that America is on but many people refuse to do anything about it.

Wow. Good news. I always look for American products, but news like this will help others "buy American".
 
Re: House made in America, 100%, in Bozeman MT

As much as I have been a proponent of "Made in Canada" seeing as I'm a Canadian, I have moreso been a proponent of:

"Made in North-America"

Seeing as so much of what we make, goes south. And so much of what is manufactured by ya'll comes back up north here, there really is one (and only one) goal that matters.

Don't buy Asian. Or Mexican.

Support the jobs and people at home, first. This concept will either fly, or fail. Your choice.

Also, interesting to know that the cost of the house was not as much more as I would have expected.
 
Re: House made in America, 100%, in Bozeman MT

Ok, so make it North-north America, eh? I had a brain-fart, for sure. Somehow had it in my head that they were "Central".

Geography class was a long long time ago.

I hope this catches on with more and more contractors across the U.S.A.. MM
