WOODWORKING QUIZ for 19 July 04
Good Evening Friends,
With todays modern trusses there is something that is seldom used anymore, not counting the ridge board.
What is it?

Ridge Strut
Some People are like slinky's,
They serve no purpose at all,
but they put a smile on your face when you throw them down the stairs.

One's brain?
(Almost) any fool can erect roof trusses.
I wanted to become a brickie but my old man said "No son, learn a trade."

WOODWORKING QUIZ ANSWER for 19 July 04
Good Evening Friends,
You all gave some good and humorous answers, however the one I was looking for is the return to the house. Remember when trusses first came out they would all have a return on them, but now you can only get them with special ordering.
With the return you did not have to install lookouts for the soffet and vents.
Thank you for your support.
Respectfully,
