Hi all, new aspiring woodworker from The Netherlands here.
My name is Jeroen (John in english) and at the moment I am 45 years old.
Recently I came into possession of my fathers tools who was a wooden boat-builder all of his working life.
Working to aquire lots of knowledge and put the tools to good use :)

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 :)
