Cramped accommodation will no longer be an issue for the handy blokes, who were for more than four years piling into a tiny meeting room for their tea breaks.

Gleaming white walls, a veritable long-table for discussions and card games, and even a new kitchen are features of the latest wing for the shed.

If that wasn't enough, a decent office and new throne — porcelain, that is — have also been built.

Not a thing goes wasted at the facility, according to Longford Men's Shed's Bob Thomas.

"The skirting boards, the door frames, they're all recycled," Mr Thomas said.

"These doors here," he said, indicating the new toilet entrances, "weren't wide enough for wheelchair access, so we added to them."

Although the opening day will be to welcome people into their haven of metal and woodwork creation, the group will no doubt be enjoying the addition of their new space.

The development was funded by a $57,000 grant from the Tasmanian Community Fund, topped by an additional $8000 from the shed's own reserves.

Mr Thomas said barbecues and small commissions works helped with raising the figure.

He said while professionals were required for certain elements of its build, a large proportion was done with no monetary cost.

"A lot of the work was done in-kind," he said.

"We had a lot of support - there was more than 1400 man-hours given to the fit-out of the shed."

From humble beginnings, the shed now offers ample facilities for woodwork and metalwork and boasts an extensive 28-bay community garden at its exterior.

Mr Thomas said the community recognised its role in the town, and was strongly supported by businesses and individuals.

He said people wanting to register with the shed were welcome as either active or social participants at a cost of $30 a year.
