Tinker club?  (never been but I like sheds :)
*
*
OUT OF THE ORDINARY runs public sheds where you can make beautiful and
useful things from the flotsam and jetsam of everyday life.
*
Our sheds are urban habitats for people who like to tinker with a bit of
ironmongery and a lot of imagination. They are welcoming social spaces where
you can learn both creative and practical skills.

Drop in to a shed and you’ll find our team of artists and technicians happy
to help you hem your trousers, reupholster a sofa, turn a bicycle into a
chandelier, or build a spaceship with your kids.*
