Father Brendan Downey, O.S.B. of the St. Lawrence Catholic Student Center, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas, suggested the thesis topic. According to Father Brendan, Catholic missionary priests find it inconvenient to carry all of the items that are needed to celebrate Mass. They also find it inconvenient to locate a makeshift altar table in each of the localities that they visit. Father Brendan suggested that a wooden altarware carrying case be made, which could be used as an altar table. The objective of this thesis was to determine the feasibility of constructing a compact unit, which could function as a carrying case for the altarware and as a platform on which to celebrate Mass.
