Nice, simplicity to the core.
Lee Loader users who have to hammer will be jealous of your press.
It's not much but it gets the job done
It’s amazing how much space a bunch of the small one pounder jugs of powder take up - and how much wasted space a reloading bench often has. I decided I needed to utilize wasted space, so these little suckers didn’t take up so much space.
Unfortunately, the modification to my bench only allows for the bottles as shown below. The tall bottles (e.g. Alliant powders) cannot be hung up, or fit below the Hodgdon hanging bottles. It saves me some space, but not as much as anticipated! The real benefit is when I can put the short’n’fat jugs under each other! Otherwise the 4/5/8lbs jugs and the tall pounders still take up some reality.
Great idea, and very similar to how I keep odd fittings. I have some plastic tubs with screw top lids (ie leftover from hot chocolate), so using a woodscrew I attached the lid to the underside of shelf and screwed the lower half on. A good use of otherwise empty space.It’s amazing how much space a bunch of the small one pounder jugs of powder take up - and how much wasted space a reloading bench often has.

That's pretty innovative. For your bench design it looks like it is workable.My problem would be just like picking a line at the bank the powder I would want would always be at the back...lol

I hear you on attaching/screwing it to the wall.No shelving up yet except the closet which is all gun cases, range bags, cleaning kit, and powder.
After buying the home and considerable projects I had the 2x4 basics supports already. Just cleaned them up and built this. Wife doesn't realize but I also screwed it to the wall. 2x4 and 3/4 treated plywood. Very solid View attachment 856873
Where does the dinosaur attach? I'm guessing that's one of the new "upgrades".

That's not a dinosaur, that's a Pokemon...specifically a CharmanderWhere does the dinosaur attach? I'm guessing that's one of the new "upgrades".
As of tomorrow, (August 30th) this thread topic is 13 years old. Majority of photos no longer exist and probably most of the members (may they rest in peace) have.....expired. I do enjoy seeing everyone's reloading rooms, wish they were more current. We can be thankful colors of re-loaders weren't in Avocado and Harvest Gold so it didn't date the rooms.
