9/1/2005  Substantial Carbide Increases
To: Valued Customers
From: Tim Foley
Date: August 15, 2005
Re: Raw Material Increases
Dear Valued Customers,

Since January, we have had substantial carbide increases from our domestic suppliers. Beginning September 01, 2005, we are incorporating a temporary 13% surcharge on all catalog items and special orders. This surcharge is necessary for us to remain a viable vendor for you.

Our labor rates remain the same but we must raise our prices to offset the raw material costs. Service work is not affected by the surcharge.

All blanket orders will be honored until expiration date. We welcome any feedback that you can provide us in the interim of this temporary crisis.

We are sure that this storm will soon blow over and we thank you for your continued patronage of our product and services.

Much Success,

Tim Foley
