I work for Black Loon Mil...</title><content type='html'>Excellent article Frank. I work for Black Loon Millworks in Ontario, Canada. We manufacturer solid wood restaurant tops and have seen fairly strong demand lately even with the sluggish economy. I guess it’s like any other industry, the successful businesses are the ones that meticulously plan and know their market inside and out. I’ve seen a number of restaurants go under in recent years because of failed planning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Glad I found your blog I will continue to follow and learn! If any of your projects require a solid wood restaurant table top be sure to keep us in mind.
