Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block] | Acquisitions 2019 The Company did not make any acquisitions in 2019. 2018 The Company completed the acquisition of Screw Products, Inc. in October 2018 for approximately $5.2 million. The purchase price was funded with cash on hand and utilization of the Company's existing credit facility.
