Cracking story on the BBC about the Men’s Sheds.

From what I can gather it is very similar to MakerSpace or HackSpace projects, but for old biffers who’d rather be doing a bit of woodwork or mechanics than the new fangled 3D printing and electronics.

As such I thought it might interest a few on here 😉

Despite what the article says they are UK-wide. See The UK Men’s Sheds Association to find your nearest shed.

(Not quite sure what their policy is on women though… 😕 )

I just had a check to find if any Sheds were near me. Only one and it’s for over fifties. I’m not old enough to belong to an old mans Shed group.

Bah!

But is the shed in a wood burner? 😉
