10ft Timberline Arch Top Modular Display: The Complete Guide to the Geometric Arch Canopy Exhibit System
Every trade show booth communicates something before any attendee reads a single word of its graphic content. The structure itself — its silhouette, its material quality, its sense of permanence or portability — delivers a brand impression in the peripheral vision of a passing attendee before the exhibit registers consciously. The 10ft Timberline Arch Top modular display makes that pre-conscious impression count. The geometric arch that rises above the 96-inch display height communicates structure, authority, and deliberateness in a form that human visual perception has associated with entrance, importance, and investment for millennia — from Roman triumphal arches through contemporary architectural entries. In a trade show context, that association is not incidental. An arch frames an entry. It marks a threshold. It says, implicitly, that something worth experiencing is on the other side. For brands whose exhibit strategy is to draw attendees in rather than simply communicate at them from the aisle, the arch top canopy is the most effective display silhouette available in the portable modular exhibit category. This guide covers everything you need to know about this specific display format before you order.
The Arch Top Canopy: Structure, Authority, and Entry
The arch top canopy of the 10ft Timberline Arch Top display is a single geometric arch structure that mounts above the primary 96-inch display height, rising from both sides of the frame to a defined apex at the center. Unlike the wave top canopy’s organic, undulating flow, the arch top creates a precise geometric form whose profile communicates intention, symmetry, and structural quality from any viewing angle across a trade show floor.
The Psychology of the Arch in Exhibit Environments
The arch form has communicated entrance, importance, and sanctioned passage across essentially every built culture in human history. This is not coincidence — it is the result of the arch being the structural solution to spanning an opening that was most achievable in durable permanent material throughout most of architectural history. The association between arch form and permanence, authority, and institutional quality is therefore deeply embedded in how human perception interprets built environments.
In a trade show context, where every exhibit is inherently temporary, a display with an arch top canopy exploits this association: it suggests permanence, investment, and institutional credibility in a setting where competitors are communicating those qualities through graphics alone. The arch does not just mark the top of the display — it frames the exhibit space below it as an environment worth entering, distinct from the open trade show floor on both sides.
What the Arch Apex Creates at Distance
From a distance across a convention center hall, the arch apex creates a visual landmark that rises above the flat-top display silhouettes on either side of it. The apex is the highest point of the display visible from any approach angle and acts as a directional indicator — a visual peak that draws the eye from across the floor. The Metal Fusion graphic carried on the arch canopy face places brand content at this elevated position, ensuring that the brand mark or imagery at the apex is the first piece of brand content legible from the widest viewing distance.
Arch Top vs. Wave Top: Choosing the Right Profile
The 10ft Timberline Arch Top and the 10ft Timberline Wave Top share identical primary frame dimensions, Metal Fusion headers, accessory packages, and case systems. The canopy is the only structural component that differs. Because the canopy defines the exhibit’s top silhouette — the profile most visible across the trade show floor — the arch vs. wave decision is the most consequential design choice in the Timberline 10ft configuration process.
Choose the Arch Top If
- Your brand communicates authority, credibility, structure, and institutional quality as primary values
- You exhibit in professional services, financial services, legal, healthcare, government, industrial, or enterprise technology sectors where a geometric arch profile reinforces appropriate brand gravitas
- Your exhibit strategy is to draw attendees into the exhibit space rather than to communicate across the aisle at passing traffic — the arch frames an entry; the wave creates a backdrop
- Your graphic design language is structured, symmetrical, and geometric rather than organic and flowing
- You want a distinctive overhead profile that creates a visual landmark above competitor flat-top displays without the organic movement associations of a wave canopy
Consider the Wave Top If
- Your brand communicates creativity, innovation, energy, and forward momentum as primary values
- You exhibit in consumer lifestyle, creative services, technology startup, or design sectors where organic visual dynamism aligns with brand identity
- Your graphic design incorporates flowing, curved, or organic forms that harmonize with a wave canopy silhouette
For exhibitors uncertain which profile is right for their brand, the most reliable test is to evaluate which silhouette, when viewed against the backdrop of competitors in your specific sector, creates the strongest positive brand association for your target audience. The arch top is almost always the appropriate choice for B2B brands and brands in regulated or professional industries; the wave top is almost always the appropriate choice for consumer-facing brands with creative or innovation-forward identities.

Metal Fusion Header and Canopy Graphic
The 10ft Timberline Arch Top carries Metal Fusion graphics at two distinct positions: the arch canopy face above the primary display height, and the primary Metal Fusion header at the main focal zone of the exhibit face. Understanding the communicative role of each position helps structure the graphic design brief for the artwork production process.
Metal Fusion Technology
The Metal Fusion process produces a printed panel with a distinctive metallic-quality surface finish that communicates premium material investment at first glance. Unlike standard dye-sublimated fabric graphics or rigid substrate inkjet prints, a Metal Fusion panel has a surface quality that reads as a premium material rather than a standard trade show graphic. The result is a header and canopy graphic that reinforces the arch top’s architectural authority with a material quality that is consistent with the elevated visual standard the arch profile establishes.
The Arch Canopy Face
The arch canopy carries a Metal Fusion graphic on its outward-facing surface. At the elevated position of the arch apex, this graphic is the brand content visible from the greatest distance across the trade show floor — typically 30–50 feet in a standard convention center hall. Brand marks, logo treatments, bold color fields, and minimal high-contrast text that communicates brand identity at recognition distance are the most effective content choices for the arch canopy face. Detailed product information or small-type text does not function effectively at canopy height and distance.
The Metal Fusion Header
The Metal Fusion header sits below the arch canopy junction and above the fabric center panels, spanning the full width of the display at the primary focal zone: the height band at and slightly above eye level where an approaching attendee’s gaze settles as they register the exhibit at 10–20 feet. The header carries the primary brand statement — the content that should convert attention created by the arch silhouette into active engagement: a headline, a product name, a core value proposition, or a strong visual brand image. The Metal Fusion surface gives this content a material quality that reinforces the arch top’s structural authority at close range.
Integrated LED Lighting: Trade Show Visibility
Every 10ft Timberline Arch Top configuration includes two LED lights as standard components. These are not supplementary spotlights added to the outside of the display — they are integrated elements of the Timberline’s frame hardware that provide front illumination of the primary graphic panels from a position within the display structure.
Why Integrated LED Lighting Matters in a Convention Center
Convention center ambient lighting is notoriously inconsistent across the show floor. Exhibits near skylights or high windows enjoy strong ambient illumination that enhances graphic brightness and color saturation. Exhibits in the interior of large halls or near HVAC systems may receive substantially less ambient light, causing their graphics to appear darker and less saturated than identical graphics in better-lit positions. Integrated LED lights eliminate this venue-dependent variability: they provide consistent, controlled front illumination of the Timberline’s graphic panels regardless of the ambient lighting conditions at any specific booth position.
For brands that exhibit at multiple shows in different convention centers — each with different ambient lighting characteristics — the consistency provided by the Timberline’s integrated LEDs means the exhibit presentation quality does not vary by venue. The graphic colors, contrast, and overall visual impact are consistent across every show floor where the display is deployed. Our dedicated resource on trade show booth lighting covers the full landscape of lighting options for exhibit environments — from integrated systems like the Timberline’s LED package through supplementary spotlight systems — and provides guidance on how to optimize lighting for different exhibit formats and venue conditions.
What the LEDs Illuminate
The two LEDs in the standard 10ft Timberline Arch Top configuration are positioned to front-illuminate the primary fabric center and side panels of the display. The Metal Fusion header and arch canopy graphic are illuminated by the LEDs at the angles their positions within the frame allow; depending on the specific configuration, supplementary lighting may benefit the canopy graphic at its elevated position. For complete guidance on maximizing the visual impact of the Timberline’s lighting across different venue conditions, the blog resource on trade show booth lighting is the most comprehensive available reference.
Monitor Mount Configuration
Select 10ft Timberline Arch Top configurations include an integrated VESA-compatible large monitor mount supporting screens from 30 to 50 inches at a maximum weight of 50 lbs. The mount is integral to the frame structure in configurations that include it and is not retrofittable to non-mount configurations after purchase.
How the Arch Top and Monitor Mount Work Together
In the arch top configuration, the monitor is positioned within the exhibit frame below the arch junction, at a height that allows the arch canopy to visually frame the digital content area above the screen. The arch effectively creates a structural frame-within-a-frame around the monitor display, giving the digital content area the same visual authority and architectural framing that the arch creates around the overall exhibit space. This combination — arch canopy framing the exhibit, arch-adjacent monitor mount framing the digital content — is one of the most compositionally coherent arrangements available in a 10ft portable modular format.
Content Strategy for the Arch Top Monitor
The arch top exhibit’s authority and permanence brand associations create specific audience expectations for digital content: visitors drawn by the arch’s institutional communication will respond most positively to content that reinforces that quality — high-production-value brand films, data-driven visualizations, professional product demonstration videos. Interactive touchscreen experiences that invite visitors to configure products, explore service options, or access detailed specifications extend the consultative interaction model that the arch top’s visual language suggests. This content strategy alignment between the canopy profile and the digital medium is one of the arch top’s less-discussed but practically significant advantages for brands in professional and enterprise sectors.
Closet Storage Configuration
Select 10ft Timberline Arch Top configurations include integrated closet storage built into the rear of the exhibit frame, accessed through Metal Fusion door panels that maintain visual consistency with the exhibit’s front face material language.
The Operational Argument for Closet Storage
For brands in professional and enterprise sectors — the primary audience for the arch top canopy profile — the visual tidiness of the exhibit environment during show hours is not a cosmetic concern but a brand management priority. A consultative sales environment that communicates authority and investment through its arch canopy and Metal Fusion surfaces loses that communicative power when carry bags are visible under the table, collateral boxes are stacked in corners, and personal items cluster at the exhibit perimeter. The integrated closet eliminates this tension entirely: all operational items disappear behind Metal Fusion door panels that present the same premium surface as the exhibit’s front face, and the visible exhibit environment reflects the quality that the arch top’s structure establishes.
Closet Configuration Specifications
The closet storage configuration uses Metal Fusion door panels for the closet face surface, maintaining the material consistency of the exhibit’s Metal Fusion header and arch canopy graphic at the closet boundary. The closet is accessed from within the exhibit footprint during show hours and provides secure storage with a closed-door position that requires no additional lock hardware. Display weight for the closet configuration is approximately 130 lbs vs. 120 lbs for the standard configuration, reflecting the additional closet frame hardware.
Acrylic Reception Desk and Shelving
Every 10ft Timberline Arch Top modular display includes an acrylic reception desk and three acrylic shelves as standard components. These integrated furniture elements complete the exhibit environment without requiring separate furniture purchases and without the visual inconsistency that generic trade show furniture creates in a premium exhibit setting.
Acrylic Reception Desk
The acrylic reception desk at 36 inches high by 24 inches wide by 16 inches deep provides a professional interaction surface at the front of the exhibit space. For brands using the arch top configuration in consultative sales applications, the reception desk serves as the initial visitor contact point — the surface where the first exchange of information, collateral, and introductory conversation takes place before a visitor moves further into the exhibit space. The transparent acrylic construction allows the desk to sit within the exhibit environment without visually blocking the graphic panels behind it.
Acrylic Shelving
Three acrylic shelves (9.5 inches wide by 18.75 inches deep each) mount within the exhibit frame structure for product display, literature staging, and branded merchandise presentation. The transparent acrylic maintains visual coherence with the reception desk and minimizes the visual weight the shelving adds to the exhibit face. For brands that need to present physical product samples or literature in the exhibit space, the integrated shelving positions these items within the branded exhibit environment rather than on external tables that sit outside the Timberline’s visual frame.
Side Panel Configurations
The 10ft Timberline Arch Top is available with straight or tapered side panels. The choice between them is a design decision that affects the exhibit’s full silhouette when viewed from the front and from an angle.
Straight Side Panels
Straight side panels create consistent vertical boundaries at both edges of the exhibit from the arch canopy junction down to the floor. In the context of the arch top canopy, straight sides create a silhouette that emphasizes the arch apex: the display reads as a rectangular field topped by a defined geometric arch. The arch is the visual focal point; the sides are the neutral vertical frame. Straight sides maximize the fabric graphic coverage area on the side surfaces and work effectively with any graphic design orientation.
Tapered Side Panels
Tapered side panels narrow toward the base, creating an angled visual boundary that interacts dynamically with the arch profile above it. When viewed from the front, the combination of a geometric arch apex and tapering side edges creates a display silhouette where multiple converging lines draw the eye toward the center and upward toward the arch peak. This combined silhouette is visually more complex and architecturally more designed than either the arch or the taper would create independently. The tapered side option is most effective for graphic designs that incorporate or complement the taper’s directional energy.
Molded Wheeled Case and Shipping
The 10ft Timberline Arch Top display ships in a purpose-engineered molded plastic wheeled case with interior dimensions matched to the specific frame components, Metal Fusion panels, and accessories included in the configuration.
Case Specifications
- Exterior Dimensions: 27.5″ W × 48″ H × 12.5–13.5″ D
- Interior Dimensions: 26″ and 24″ (inset) W × 45.5″ H × 9.375″ D
- Case Weight: ~120 lbs (standard), ~130 lbs (closet configuration)
At 120–130 lbs, the 10ft Arch Top exceeds standard carrier weight limits and requires freight carrier service for most shipping scenarios. The wheeled case design allows one person to transport the case from the freight dock through the convention center hall to the booth position. For detailed guidance on managing trade show display shipping logistics — including advance warehouse shipping, carrier selection for exhibit-weight cases, and venue receiving procedures — our resource on portable trade show displays covers shipping considerations across the full range of portable exhibit formats, from lightweight tube-frame systems through freight-weight modular displays like the Timberline.
Setup and Assembly
The 10ft Timberline Arch Top modular display assembles in approximately 40 minutes with a two-person team. Assembly is toolless throughout; no fastening tools are required at any stage of the process.
Assembly Sequence Overview
- Remove and inventory all components from the molded case using the included instructions for reference
- Assemble the primary modular display frame sections at their toolless connection points
- Attach the side panel frame structures at both sides of the primary frame
- Mount the arch top canopy structure above the primary frame top rail, with the second person holding the arch in position during connection
- Install the Metal Fusion header panel in its designated position below the arch junction
- Install the fabric center panels and side panels within their respective frame positions
- Mount the LED lights at their designated frame positions and route power cables
- Assemble and position the acrylic reception desk and mount the acrylic shelves
- If monitor-mount configuration: attach the VESA bracket and hang the display screen
- Verify LED illumination and final component positioning before opening to attendees
First-time assembly typically takes 45–60 minutes for a two-person team working through the instructions. The arch canopy attachment step requires two people and is the step that most benefits from prior familiarity with the specific configuration. After two or three shows, most teams complete the standard 10ft Arch Top setup in 40 minutes or less.
Graphic Production: Artwork Requirements
The 10ft Timberline Arch Top requires artwork for four graphic positions: the arch canopy face (Metal Fusion), the Metal Fusion header panel, and the fabric center and side panels. Each position has specific template dimensions and production workflow requirements.
Arch Canopy Face (Metal Fusion)
The arch canopy graphic is produced using the Metal Fusion process. The arch form creates a panel whose face dimensions follow the curvature of the arch structure; the artwork template must account for this geometry. Template files are available from our team. At the arch apex’s elevated position and viewing distance, graphics should use bold, high-contrast visual elements that communicate at recognition distance — logos, brand marks, and bold color fields rather than detailed product information or small-type text.
Metal Fusion Header (Flat Panel)
The header is produced on a flat Metal Fusion panel to the template dimensions for the 10ft Arch Top header zone. This is the primary brand statement zone of the exhibit face — the content that should be legible and comprehensible at 10–20 feet. Headline text, brand marks, and primary product imagery at the header dimensions create the most effective primary brand communication at approach distance.
Fabric Center and Side Panels (Dye-Sublimated)
Center and side panels are custom dye-sublimated fabric graphics. Files should be submitted at 150 dpi at final output size in Adobe RGB or sRGB color profile with bleed per the panel-specific template dimensions. Templates for all panel positions are available from our team before artwork begins. The fabric panels carry supporting campaign imagery, product visuals, or secondary brand messaging in the lower zone of the exhibit face.
Production Lead Time
All 10ft Timberline Arch Top configurations are produced in 3–5 business days from proof approval. Add freight transit time for the final delivery timeline calculation. For shows with compressed pre-event timelines, contact our team before placing the order to confirm current production availability for your show date.
Who Is the 10ft Arch Top Right For?
B2B and Professional Services Exhibitors
The arch top canopy’s authority-communicating silhouette aligns most naturally with brands in B2B sectors where the exhibit’s primary function is to establish credibility and invite consultative engagement: financial services, legal, healthcare systems, enterprise technology, manufacturing, consulting, logistics, and professional services of all kinds. In these sectors, the arch top creates an exhibit environment that communicates the organizational quality of the brand before any sales conversation begins. The exhibit itself becomes part of the sales process by establishing the right perceptual context for the brand’s expertise and investment level. For a complete strategic framework for maximizing trade show exhibit ROI in B2B contexts, our trade show marketing resources cover pre-show outreach, on-floor engagement strategy, and post-show lead conversion in an integrated system.
Brands Replacing Portable Pop-Up Displays with a Premium Modular System
For brands that have been exhibiting with basic portable pop-up backdrops and are ready to upgrade to a premium modular system, the 10ft Timberline Arch Top represents the most significant step-change in exhibit quality available in the portable modular category at the 10×10 booth scale. Understanding what that step-change involves — and where the investment goes relative to a pop-up backdrop — is the subject of our resource on portable trade show displays, which compares the full range of portable formats from tabletop banner stands through premium modular backwall systems at comparable booth footprints.
Exhibitors Who Value Long-Term Exhibit Asset Quality
The Timberline Arch Top is built for multi-year service. The high-quality modular frame, robust canopy attachment hardware, and molded protective case are all engineered to maintain their appearance and performance across the repeated assembly, disassembly, shipping, and storage cycles of an active exhibit calendar. For brands that plan to exhibit for five or more years and want a display system that maintains its premium appearance from the first show through the fiftieth, the Timberline Arch Top’s construction quality and component protection justify its investment over lower-cost alternatives that degrade visually more rapidly under equivalent conditions. Pairing the 10ft Arch Top with trade show hanging banners overhead extends the arch top’s vertical brand presence from the display through the ceiling plane of the convention center, creating a visible brand landmark that draws attention across the full hall floor.
How the 10ft Arch Top Compares to Other Formats
10ft Timberline Arch Top vs. Portable Pop-Up Displays
A standard 10ft fabric pop-up backdrop delivers a flat graphic surface at roughly 8ft tall in a collapsible format that ships in a soft bag. It communicates that a brand is present at a show. The 10ft Timberline Arch Top creates an exhibit environment: an arch canopy that draws attention from a distance, a Metal Fusion header at the primary focal zone, integrated LED illumination, acrylic furniture for visitor interaction, and a complete branded environment that communicates brand investment at a level the pop-up cannot approach. The visual and functional gap between the two formats is immediately apparent to any attendee who encounters both on the same show floor.
10ft Timberline Arch Top vs. EZ Connect Modular Systems
The EZ Connect display family — including single frames and modular kits — delivers portable tube-frame display capability at lower entry cost, lighter shipping weight, and faster setup times. EZ Connect systems do not include a shaped canopy profile, Metal Fusion header, integrated furniture, or LED lighting as standard components. For exhibitors entering the modular display category, the EZ Connect family is the most accessible entry point. For exhibitors whose exhibit objectives require a defined architectural canopy, integrated accessory package, and premium header quality, the Timberline Arch Top delivers what EZ Connect systems cannot.
10ft Timberline Arch Top vs. Three-Dimensional Modular Systems
The Modco modular display and Cabo modular display systems create three-dimensional exhibit environments with enclosed meeting rooms, comprehensive accessory ecosystems, and large-scale configuration capability. These systems serve exhibit objectives that require interior spaces, product shelving walls, and 360-degree graphic coverage — objectives the 10ft Timberline Arch Top is not designed to address. The Timberline Arch Top is the premium inline backwall system for the 10×10 booth footprint; the Modco and Cabo systems are three-dimensional exhibit room systems for larger footprints.
10ft Timberline Arch Top vs. Origami Truss
The Origami Truss display serves island booth configurations and large-scale structural exhibits at a higher investment level, with configurations that extend from 20×10ft through 30×20ft island footprints. For brands in 10×10 inline booths who want maximum visual impact within that footprint, the Timberline Arch Top is the appropriate premium choice. For brands that need three-dimensional island structures with overhead spanning elements and 360-degree coverage, the Origami Truss is the correct system.
Where This Display Fits in the Modular Silo
The 10ft Timberline Arch Top modular display is the geometric arch canopy variant within the 10ft Timberline subcategory of the Timberline modular display family — one of six modular display systems in the modular displays silo. Within that silo, the 10ft Arch Top occupies the premium inline backwall position at the 10×10 booth scale: the highest-quality, most architecturally distinctive, most completely equipped backwall exhibit system for the standard 10×10 trade show footprint that remains portable and self-installable without a professional installation crew.
For the complete cross-system comparison across all six modular display systems, the modular trade show displays definitive buyer’s guide provides the structured evaluation framework across every exhibit objective, booth size, and investment level. The complete trade show displays catalog covers every format at every scale for brands planning their full exhibit program.
Buying Guide: 5 Decisions Before You Order
1. Arch top or wave top?
Confirm that the arch top’s structured, authority-communicating profile aligns with your brand identity before ordering. If your brand visual language is organic, dynamic, or consumer-creative, the wave top variant may be the better-aligned choice. If your brand communicates credibility, structure, and institutional quality to a professional or B2B audience, the arch top is the natural fit.
2. Do I need the monitor mount?
If digital content presentation is or may become part of your exhibit strategy at any show, specify the monitor-mount configuration now. The VESA bracket is integral to the frame in configurations that include it and is not retrofittable. A 30–50 inch screen at maximum 50 lbs is supported by the standard mount in monitor-mount configurations.
3. Do I need closet storage?
For exhibitors in professional and enterprise sectors where exhibit environment tidiness is a brand management priority, the closet storage configuration eliminates the most common source of visual clutter in a 10×10 booth. The Metal Fusion door panels maintain the arch top exhibit’s premium visual consistency at the closet boundary. Specify at time of order.
4. Straight or tapered side panels?
Review the combined arch-plus-side-panel silhouette in the context of your graphic design before finalizing the side panel style. Straight sides emphasize the arch apex as the dominant visual form. Tapered sides create a more complex converging silhouette that interacts dynamically with the arch. The side panel style is specified at the time of order and is integral to the frame configuration.
5. What is my production and freight timeline, and what is my booth lighting strategy?
Allow 3–5 business days for production plus freight transit time. At 120–130 lbs per case, freight carrier service is required for most shipping scenarios. For exhibitors who are new to freight shipping of exhibit displays, the resource on portable trade show displays covers advance warehouse shipping, carrier selection, and venue receiving procedures in detail. Separately, review the trade show booth lighting guide to determine whether the two integrated LEDs fully serve your exhibit’s illumination requirements or whether supplementary lighting may enhance the arch canopy graphic visibility at its elevated position.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the total height of the 10ft Timberline Arch Top display?
The 10ft Timberline Arch Top is 96 inches (8ft) in total height, including the arch canopy above the primary panel height. The arch apex rises above the top of the primary panel, so the maximum visible height from the attendee’s perspective exceeds a standard 8ft backwall. Confirm ceiling clearance and venue height restrictions for your specific show before ordering.
What is the difference between the arch top and wave top Timberline configurations?
The arch top creates a geometric arch profile that frames an entry and communicates structural authority. The wave top creates an organic flowing profile that communicates movement and creative energy. All other components — frame dimensions, Metal Fusion header, accessory package, and case system — are identical between the two canopy types. The canopy is the only structural difference.
Does the arch top require professional installation?
No. The Timberline Arch Top uses a user-friendly toolless modular design throughout. Two people are recommended for assembly; setup takes approximately 40 minutes with an experienced two-person team. The arch canopy attachment step requires two people working simultaneously but does not require professional installation expertise or any tools.
Can I add a monitor to the display after purchase?
Only in monitor-mount configurations. The VESA bracket is integral to the frame structure in those configurations. Non-mount configurations cannot be retrofitted with the bracket after purchase. Specify the monitor-mount configuration at the time of order if a screen is part of your exhibit strategy.
What monitor size does the integrated mount support?
The VESA-compatible large monitor mount supports screens from 30 to 50 inches at a maximum weight of 50 lbs. It accepts standard VESA mounting patterns, making it compatible with virtually any commercial flat-panel display within those dimensions and weight parameters.
Can I replace graphics without buying a new display?
Yes. The fabric center and side panels are dye-sublimated replaceable graphics. The Metal Fusion header and arch canopy graphic are produced as components of the display package, and replacement Metal Fusion panels are available separately. Contact our team for replacement graphic pricing, template files, and production lead times for each component position in your specific 10ft Timberline Arch Top configuration.
