Located at the Capel Sound Community Hub, we're a welcoming place for men of all ages and skill levels on the Mornington Peninsula. Come for the craft — stay for the company.
The Rosebud & Districts Men's Shed officially opened on 31 March 2019, proudly supported by Mornington Peninsula Shire, the State Government, and the Federal Government. It's a community-built place, for the community.
We operate within the Capel Sound Community Hub at 11A Allambi Avenue, Capel Sound — meaning our members have access to a full range of community services right on their doorstep.
Our aim is simple: sustain and improve members' health through social interaction and skill-sharing, while undertaking worthwhile projects that benefit the broader community. Whether you're after a productive hobby, a new skill, or simply a good yarn over a cuppa — there's a place for you here.
The shed is a place to knock about with like-minded mates. Side by side, men connect more naturally than face to face.
Staying mentally active, socially connected, and engaged in purposeful work is the best medicine we know.
We build, repair, and support — from community projects to helping individuals who need a hand.
All skill levels welcome. Whether you're a lifelong tradesman or you've never held a chisel, there's something here for you.
Full woodworking facilities including CNC woodworking equipment. From rough timber to finished furniture — all levels welcome.
Welding, metal fabrication, and engineering. Experienced members on hand to guide newcomers through safe workshop practice.
Computers, 3D printing, Laser Engraving, CNC machining, IT support, and internet use. We keep pace with the digital world — and help you do the same.
Use the shed's equipment for your own projects. Got something in mind? Bring it in — we've got the space, tools, and advice you need.
We support local community groups and individuals with projects — making a real difference on the Mornington Peninsula.
Sausage sizzles, community markets, and events. Good conversation over a cuppa is every bit as important as what's built at the bench.
