December 14, 20169 yr comment_87633 Morning Y'all, I'm new here. I know Stick from over at Router Forums, and he was kind enough to invite me here. I'm a retired engineer from central Mississippi who never quite grew up. I still love bulldozers, cranes and things that make sawdust. I build mostly furniture items to use at home. Report

I posted your stave computer and that went well... rumor control has it that more of the like is on demand... Thanks Stick! I love building Excel spreadsheets to help cut down on errors in the shop. I also have a spreadsheet to calculate dimensions of all the parts for raised-panel doors, drawer fronts and drawer boxes. I'll post that spreadsheet separately. Tell me what you'd like a spreadsheet to do, and I might try to build one to do it. Report

Morning Y'all,: If'n ya'll are from the heart of Dixie, shouldn't the initial greeting have been Morning, All, Y'all as the plural?

I still love bulldozers, cranes and things that make sawdust.: what kind of woodworking do you do where you use bulldozers & cranes to make sawdust?

Yankees (anyone north of Tennessee is a Yankee to folks down here) should never attempt to instruct Southerners on how to speak Southern English. There's just too many nuances in our language for an outsider to ever hope to grasp. But I'll try to lift the veil just a bit for you. Y'all is plural, the contraction of you all. We seldom use the term "all y'all", but when we do, it's for emphasis. "All Y'all" means every single one of you with no exceptions. "All Y'all are in for a whuppin if'n ya' don't straighten up."

December 15, 20169 yr comment_87828 I had to break out my urban dictionary because you'nz guys weren't making much sense. you'nz Contraction of You and Ones, Similar in usage and definition to y'all, but local to north-western Pennsylvania, including Pittsburgh. Alternate spellings: younze younz yins yinz youn'z Are you'nz gonna ride rollercoasters at Kennywood? Report
December 15, 20169 yr comment_87859 More like south-western PA. Like Soda vs. Pop...soda is Philly speak and pop is how the normal people spoke. Then there is the southern version where..." Would you like a Coke" refers to any brand of carbonated beverage. Anyway...you'se is NYC/NJ and you'nz is just plain wrong.... Report
