Reloading Room Pics

[DarkRose]

Grrrr. Hate being late to the party, got a workshop to set up in, finally got a press (lightly used Rockchucker), now I'm in the market for components...

Wait... Maybe this should go in the Joke of the Day thread?

SP/SR primers... nope.
Trimmers... ok.
Powder measures... nope.
Tumblers... nope.
Bullets... occasionally, lol.
Hand Priming Tool... ok.

Ugh.

Once more.

One more little step saver. I added this shelf to the back of the stand to make the scale both easier to reach and to read. It is now at hand and eye level. The support board also gives me a place to store a few things like pencils,post-it notes,marking pen,brush and flashlight etc. that I previously had to walk away from the station to find.

That is a very nice piece of craftsmanship!

Vince49, we've met so I'm guessing that the placement of the scale overcomes the annoyance of trying to look through bifocals at a detailed scale that is too low and too far away. It makes sense to my eyes.

Great solution!

What did you use to make the stand?

 

[Vince49]

Spit,chewing gum and glue.

What did you use to make the stand?

The stand is a universal tool stand that used to hold an old tool sharpening grinder. Stands like it are available from Delta power tools, also on e-bay and Harbor Freight. There is a Harbor Freight store here on S.Madison Ave. in Indy and they are about $40.00. For the rest I just stacked plywood squares on top of the stand until it was the right height, cut out a 2'x4'x3/4" plywood top and glued and screwed it all together.

Right on LMW!

Good guess! Tomorrow I plan to start working on something that will help me quit pissing on my shoes!

Man, I feel like such a slob! Ain't gonna post no pics of mine!

And there is my stance as well. If you saw where I reload you'd think I'd had a few cans of powder go off in there.
I know where everything is, anyone who doesn't believe me can test me if they manage to come over and see the place.
I just don't think anyone really needs to see it, at least not until I get the promised help to clear up my garage.
Once I have that area back, my reloading area will look a lot more like the one in the OP except with Lee equipment.
All the casting gear will be hung up with care on a pegboard as well, it will be so nice when this happens...

Until then, it works for me even though it's a mess.

kaboom I do like like that bench looks like you can park a truck on it solid, I made mine out of foundation form

 

[drop45]

Just started building mine today, I will post pics from I-pad as soon as I figure it out

 

[ZbornacSVT]

I recently finished building a new bench after I acquired another press. Finally got all the presses moved to it, but still not complete with the migration. I'll post more pictures when she's done.

Sorry for the grainy cell phone pic...

Yup. I have had my eye on them for a while now, just couldn't justify the cost. They were running some specials at SHOT that I couldn't pass up. I got into these for less than what a Mr Bulletfeeder was going to run, so I figured let's do it.

As far as I know, this is the only brand that combines the feed and seat into a single stage, therefor this is the only brand I know of that lets you keep your powdercheck station. These are also available for the 550 and 1050. Rifle (.223) is available currently for the 650, but the 1050 is being reworked and is not being sold at this time.

Made a few changes and upgrades to my bench this week. Added more shelves and tool storage.

Wanted to get tumblers off the bench to give me more room, also needed place to store media/case separators so I built this cabinet. Put it on castors so I can roll it out of the way when I need to.

Well, I can see right now that I have a long ways to go to get in league with these set-ups! I belive I might have the range (loading about twenty different cartridges) but not nearly the level of organisation and illumination, not to mention environmental elements such as ventilation and humidity control. But thanks guys, you give me new insight as to what I strive to be!

 

[Armored Saint]

LOVE the carpeted workbenches. Ok, I'm gonna start reloading!

 

[armedhoosier451]

Haha my "reloading room" consists of a Lee challenger press mounted on an old desk in my bed room it has to share time with my keyboard lol

Had one of the guys from Profire ask me if I had a pic of how I organize my dies and powder bushings for the lock n load so here it is.

Completely unnecessary pic with some trophies and stuff.
