It looks like Woodland Senics will be down and out for the near future.
This is too bad, they have been around for many years and I have always been a fan of their products.

Sorry to hear about the fire, I have been using Woodland Scenic stuff and loved most of it. Hope they will be able to recuperate from the disaster and reactivate the business...

That's good to know that they'll be still trading, more importantly that no one was injured...

Very good to hear that no one was hurt and that the impact on the business won't be as severe as it could have been. WS products are certainly a staple on my work bench.

Terribly unfortunate for this time in terms of the economy but I suppose the main thing is no one was hurt. They are a great company, I wish them all the best.
