    Pretty much the same story here mate. 42, moved house, part of the deal was I get my own shed to teach myself (still waiting on the shed). Inherited some damn old tools. Playing and learning at the moment and loving every minute of it

    Currently hooked on restoring old tools (I have 2 saws, one bit brace and old chisels on the go at once) so be careful, if you start getting the bug..you will be haunting EBAY and second hand sales in your area

    The people on this forum are insanely knowledgeable, heaps of information.

    Enjoy your stay
