A PRACTICAL WORKSHOP AT CARRIDEN BOATYARD

Make it.
Fix it.
Build it.

Shed 2 is a working workshop for people who need something made, repaired or built — and for people who want the space and support to make something themselves.

YOUR PROJECTS

A WORKING SHED, NOT A SHOWROOM

Ideas are better when you can actually make them.

Shed 2 is about useful skills, good materials and the satisfaction of turning an idea into something real.

Not every project fits neatly into a garage, garden shed or kitchen. Shed 2 gives you access to a proper working environment at Carriden Boatyard — with practical experience on hand when it helps.

Come to us because you need something made. Come because something needs fixing. Or bring your own project and use the workshop to get it done.

If it involves making, fixing or building, there is a good chance it belongs in Shed 2.

WHAT HAPPENS IN SHED 2

Practical work. Properly made.

From one-off jobs to ambitious builds, the workshop is set up to handle projects that need space, tools and hands-on problem solving.

01 · TIMBER

Furniture & woodwork

One-off pieces, built-in furniture, joinery, repairs and larger timber projects.

02 · BOATYARD

Boats & repairs

Boatbuilding, maintenance, alterations and practical repairs right here at Carriden Boatyard.

03 · METAL

Steel fabrication

Bespoke steelwork, brackets, frames, repairs and practical fabrication for real-world jobs.

04 · BUILD

Small structures

Cabins, workshops, tiny-house ideas and compact structures designed around what you actually need.

YOUR PROJECT, YOUR WAY

You don't have to hand the whole job over.

Bring your own project into Shed 2 and make use of the space, facilities and support to move it forward yourself.

01   TALK IT THROUGH

Tell us what you're trying to make, repair or build and what stage you're at.

02   BRING IT IN

Use the workshop and equipment rather than trying to squeeze the project into an unsuitable space.

03   MAKE IT HAPPEN

Work independently or get practical help when you need another pair of hands or a bit of experience.

MADE IN SHED 2

Projects worth showing.

As the business grows, this becomes a living gallery of furniture, repairs, fabrication, boats and customer projects.

FIND THE SHED

Based at Carriden Boatyard.

The location is part of the story: practical, industrial, waterside and built around making and maintaining things. The website should feel like it belongs there.

COME WITH AN IDEA

It doesn't need to be fully worked out.

A sketch, a photograph, a broken part or a half-built project is enough to start a useful conversation.

Got a project in mind? Get it out of your head and into the shed.
