WOODWORKING QUIZ for 1 SEPT. 04

[Ralph Jones]

Good Evening Friends,
Up here in the State of Iowa there are some monks called Trappist monks, who take up an unusual line of woodworking to supplement falling farm prices.

Can you think of what that unusual woodworking trade is?

Respectfully,

They make Rat Trapps?

Respectfully,

If you are referring to New Melleray Abbey, I believe they make a range of furniture and gift shop items. But I guess the "unusual line" to which you refer is probably coffins (caskets)? ... http://www.trappistcaskets.com/

Go wood hunting with one of these?????

Good Evening Friends,
Hexbaz is the winner tonight as he had the correct answer, they make caskets. I will attach one of their caskets.

Thanks for your support.

Sorry Ralph,

I didn't get a casket; just a picture of one.

Good thinking my man.

What a fantastic vehicle for peak hour!

Were on earth did you get that pic?

I love it!!!!


They must have shares in an ammunition factory, I believe that both those guns are .50 cal. :eek:


I want one. No I don't have a use for it, I just want it.


Ben.

That pic came in an email sent to me titled 'Deer Season Weapon for Iowa Farmers" so considering Ralph mentioned Iowa I thought I would post it.
Damned impressive bit of equipment though. Could just imagine the likes of the "Hatfields & McCoys" feuding with something like this.
