A mall that has carpentry shops to build wood items or automotive shops to work on cars. There could also be home improvement supply stores and hardware and automobile supplies stores at the mall.

I have seen do-it-yourself carpentry and automotive shops, home-improvement and hardware stores in Calgary, Alberta, Canada that were successful entities by themselves but never as part of a mall.

Shops in such a mall would simply use basic facilities already existing altered for specific uses.

Other businesses in the mall might be tool rental businesses, fabric and sewing facilities, restaurant and coffee shops, do-it-yourself bookstores and suppliers of kits and plans, storage facilities for partly finished projects and teaching facilities
