ABOUT SHED 2
A place for practical ideas.
Shed 2 is a working workshop at Carriden Boatyard built around making useful things, solving awkward problems and helping good projects move forward.
WHY SHED 2
Because not every job fits a normal workshop.
Some jobs are too big, too unusual or simply too hands-on for a conventional service. Shed 2 is deliberately broad: timber, boats, steel, repairs, small structures and customer-led projects all have a place here.
The common thread is practical problem-solving. We start with what you are trying to achieve, then work out the most sensible way to get there.
THE BUSINESS
Run by Tom Gerhardt.
Shed 2 is run by Tom Gerhardt as a sole trader, trading as Shed 2.
Projects can call for very different skills. Where additional expertise or a particular specialism is needed, extra support will be brought in on an as-required basis to suit the job.
This keeps the business flexible and allows each project to be approached with the skills it actually needs.
01 · USEFUL
Built for real life
The aim is not to make things complicated. It is to make them work.
02 · FLEXIBLE
No rigid formula
We can make it for you, work alongside you, or simply give your project room to happen.
03 · HANDS-ON
Make, test, adjust
Good workshop decisions often happen at the bench, not on a spreadsheet.
