About Us:
Hello and Welcome to Copper Shed!
My name is Ryan Forbes and my wife is Kerry. I am a Family man from Ohio with 3 young boys, grew up in Southern California. I am full-time Copper Shed and this has become our family business. We started out in 2015, and went full time in 2018 with a dream to have a full functioning Machine Shop. I make EDC (Every Day Carry) items like Bottle Openers, Beads, Keychains, Fidgets and Pry Tools. As well as Desktop Penholders and Wall Clocks and many other items. I also make Cutting Tools when I can.
I started out all handmade and now we have purchased 3 CNC machines over the years to help keep up. I still try and make about half of my designs completely by hand, and even when on the machine I personally hand finish each piece.
I take great pride in using other small Home-Makers or small local companies for things like Copper Shed Hanks, Apparel and other similar items and also take the time to source all my supplies/Metals/resources from the U.S. whenever possible.
Whatever I make throughout each week goes up for sale every Sunday afternoon in our group. Sales start at 4:30pm est. every single Sunday.
Our current Business has been steadily growing each year. We would like to offer our services to local companies or Individuals. We might be a great fit for your small batch work, overflow work, prototyping for a project. Maybe you only need 25 pieces made and larger shops have a higher minimum order, or long lead times. Thats where we can help!
We are just starting out offering our services outside of our own work. Give us a chance, we promise to do our best for you!
Specializing in small parts: Titanium, Aluminum, Brass, Copper, Mild Steel and other materials.
