Working Hard!
December 16, 2011More Facebooking
May 17, 2011I recently wrote about the growing Folbot community on Facebook (please “like” us there!).
One of the daily features has become the posting of a “Folbot Mystery Photo” where people try to identify what’s in the photo — which all have something to do with Folbot or the kayaks. The answers range from serious to funny — we’ve even had one of the posters insisting that the picture was of an alien worm from outer space (I don’t think she was serious).
Today’s photo is a favorite of mine — it captures the joy of a successful first assembly of a Folbot kayak.
The challenge on Facebook was, “What is the actual purpose of the ‘Robin Hood hats’ that these gentlemen are wearing? Do you know?”
Do you?

The correct answer (properly phrased in the form of a question) is: What are the polycarbonate crossframes used in the Folbot kayak frames before they were replaced by aircraft grade aluminum?
Thanks to all the contestants for playing!

Folbot Jeopardy — The Question Is….
September 17, 2010Welcome back to Folbot Jeopardy.
The category in today’s Final Jeopardy was: “Things in the Folbot factory.”
To come up with the right answer, our contestants had to correctly identify this photograph:
Our contestants have locked in their answers… let’s hope they framed them in the form of a question.
And the correct answer is: What jig is used to make sure the #3 crossframe in the Citibot or Metroboat has been shaped correctly?
Thanks for playing! See you next time on Folbot Jeopardy.
