This phrase is a combination of the two phrases: the smartest guy in the room, and the sharpest tool in the shed. The phrases are practically identical in meaning, so combining the phrases is a move of a literary genius. The phrase: the smartest tool in the shed means the smartest tool in a hypothetical shed.
He’s not the smartest tool in the shed, it takes him a little bit to understand.
He might be the smartest tool in the shed, but that doesn’t make him a good person.

Get the raptor shedmug. An area of a gym/exercise facility populated with small groups of men in carefully planned outfits with overly gelled hair or hats with flat bills. One member of each group is usually actually doing an exercise or lift while the others stand around and chat while comparing themselves in the mirrors. After 20 minutes - they rotate which person is using the weights/machine. After two hours the average number of lifts performed by each person averages at about 6.
Example 1:
A: Did you get a lift in at the gym last night?
B: I tried but it was a tool shed so I had to wait forever for machines to open up.
Example 2:
A: Great, the lifting area looks like a complete tool shed today, maybe we should wait to lift until later.
Example 3:
A: Did you see any hot guys at the gym this morning?
B: Haha, no. It was such a tool shed, none of them were worth a second glance.
