Christmas is Early: Gone boi!

A certain box showed up today. I promptly squirreled the WE130 away to its temporary home until my workshop its finished. Its amazingly well machined, finished, and assembled. I’m likely to simply disappear for a while as I (try to) apply the theory I’ve learned so far. I think MarcH calls it “getting experience”. :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Have fun! In a couple of days you’ll be digging through drawers desperately looking for any remaining bladed objects that you can put a new edge onto.

Organic nailed that one on the head.

We’ll look forward to hearing from you in a month or so when you can pull away from your sharpener long enough. lol

OK, Nick! I give up. What is the meaning of “Gone boi” and where does it come from? Sounds like an Aussie idiom.

I think Nick said he was in Hawaii. Sounds like its a Hawaiian term? Or maybe he said he was in Austrailia.

Back up for some air…

Lol! It’s Caribbean Kriol…“Gone boi” (pronounced gan bwoi )

Couple of meanings contest dependent 1) its all gone (boy) as in, there is no more bait or 2) I’m outta here!

Thanks for clearing that up. I assume that “kriol” is the same as “Creole?”
