This site is dedicated to my father, the original old goat, a great woodworker. As a child I would spend hours around him in the shop not realizing how much I was picking up. I've only starting woodworking again in last few years, after my kids have left home. So this blog is about heritage, and a way for me to pass it on.

And So it Begins
After my fathers retirement he grew a beard and jokingly started calling himself an Old Goat. He was a life long woodworker, if not by trade by heart. As he spent his retirement in the shop we often heard him dream of creating a woodworking business that would be called Old Goat Enterprises. Well Dad, sadly, is no longer with us but his love for woodworking has finally grew in me. It's taken a long time, so long in fact I now consider myself an Old Goat. (Thanks Dad, couldn't you have picked something a little more nobel?) So while I have no intention of ever creating a business, I'd like to dedicate this blog to my father's, and now mine, passion for woodworking.

This is too cool. What a great way to share knowledge and honor your dad.
