Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Legal Proceedings The Company is party to various claims, legal proceedings and investigations arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of these actions involve complex factual and legal issues and are subject to uncertainties. At this time, the Company is not able to either predict the outcome of these legal proceedings or reasonably estimate a potential range of loss with respect to the proceedings. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of such pending claims, proceedings and investigations with certainty, management is of the opinion that their ultimate resolution should not have a material adverse effect on results of operations, cash flows or financial position taken as a whole. Beginning in 2005, the Company initiated claims in Iowa County Circuit Court against the City of Dodgeville (the "City") to recover overpaid taxes resulting from the City’s excessive property tax assessment of the Company’s headquarters campus for each tax year from 2005 through 2016. As of June 6, 2017 the City has refunded, as the result of various court decisions and a settlement agreement, over $7.5 million in excessive taxes and interest to the Company. All excessive property tax assessment claims arising with respect to the tax years 2005 through 2016 are now closed. The Company received refunds of $1.0 million in the First Quarter 2017 and $1.2 million in the Second Quarter 2016 which were recorded primarily within Selling and administrative costs in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
