Item 1. Security and Issuer:
This Schedule 13D relates to shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value
(the "Common Stock") of DT Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Issuer"). The principal executive office and mailing address of the Issuer is
1949 East Sunshine, Suite 2-300, Springfield, Missouri 65804.
Item 2. Identity and Background:
This statement is being filed by Robert W. Plaster, Stephen R. Plaster
and Larry Weis (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"). The Reporting Persons
may constitute a "group" within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), with respect to their beneficial
ownership of shares of Common Stock. However, each of the Reporting Persons is
of the view that the Reporting Persons are not acting as a "group" for purposes
of Section 13(d) under the Act and that they are not otherwise required to
attribute to each other the "beneficial ownership" of securities "beneficially
owned" by the other Reporting Persons within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the
Act, and each of the Reporting Persons disclaims control and beneficial
ownership of any Common Stock owned by the other Reporting Persons.
Robert W. Plaster's principal occupation is an executive of Evergreen
Investments LLC. His business address is PO Box 1600, Lebanon, Missouri 65536,
(417) 533-3007. Robert W. Plaster is a citizen of the United States of America.
Stephen R. Plaster's principal occupation is an executive of

Investments LLC. His business address is PO Box 1600, Lebanon, Missouri 65536,
(417) 533-3007. Larry Weis is a citizen of the United States of America.
During the past five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been (i)
convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar

was or is subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future
violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or
state securities laws, or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Consideration.
The Reporting Persons each purchased their Common Stock with personal
funds.
Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.
The purpose of the acquisition of the Common Stock is for investment,
and the acquisitions of the Common Stock were made in the ordinary course of
business and were not made for the purpose of acquiring control of the Issuer.
Consistent with their investment purposes, the Reporting Persons may
engage in communications with one or more stockholders of the Issuer, one or
more officers of the Issuer and/or one or more members of the board of directors
of the Issuer and/or one or more representatives of the Issuer regarding the
Issuer, including but not limited to its operations. The Reporting Persons may
discuss ideas that, if effected may result in any of the following: the
acquisition by persons of additional Common Stock of the Issuer, an
extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer, and/or changes in the
board of directors or management of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons may seek
to have one or more persons designated by them elected to the Board of Directors
of the Issuer.
On June 8, 2000, Mr. Weis submitted a shareholder proposal to the
Issuer proposing that the shareholders request that the Board of Directors of
the Issuer terminate the Issuer's Rights Agreement and redeem the rights unless
the Rights Agreement is approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the
stockholders at a meeting called for that purpose. The Reporting Persons may
submit additional proposals relating to corporate governance issues (including
proposals to change the terms of directors) in the future.
Except to the extent the foregoing may be deemed a plan or proposal,
none of the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals which relate to, or
could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j),
inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
