Men’s sheds are community-based, non-commercial organisations that are open to all men. Men’s sheds improve the health and wellbeing of their members by giving them a safe place to make friends, share meaningful activities, talk, and access health information and resources. https://www.health.gov.au/our-work/mens-sheds

    Interesting. Never heard of it. Seems overly complicated to make it gender based. But I like the idea.

    I like the idea of a Random Folks shed lol

    They're traditionally for boomer age people and they can be a bit weird about gender roles. For transparency my local one is officially called the 'Community Shed' but Men's Shed is still the coloquial term most people use.
