>We must remember when this began to occur, which was as soon as possible.
The
first saw mill in the country was set up here in southern Maine in the
1620.
Immediately (or at least within a few decades) carpenters began using the
"cheaper" mill-sawn boards for everything they could including plaster
lath.
For the first time in history people lived in houses completely surrounded
(floors, walls and ceilings) with "cheap" machine-produced building
materials.

Good points! If our forefathers had power tools and mass-produced nails,
they wouldn't have hesitated to use them.
