Show us a picture of your reloading bench

You guys better hope Nobama doesn't see this thread, ya'll in trouble:)

OFB, I'd love to shoot some p-dogs with you, I haven't forgotten your offer from years ago, "young man" ha, I think I have a few years on you:)
 
Yessir. .40 s&w 165 grain RNFP. A friend recommended them, great price, and they have stock ready to order (unlike everywhere else). And free shipping.
I just sent in an order, as well. Great to find a place that has bullets in stock.
 
I agree, this is one of the best reloading threads on the internet... MAKE IT A STICKY AGAIN, PLEASE???:banghead:
 
Sticky!!
My bench is a few pages back but will be closing on a house (hopefully) in a few weeks.
After I get the basement dried out there will be a new bench to post
 
This was in January...

Reloading has been a fun journey for me.. I'm not on any kind of accelerated learning process, just kinda learning as I go... I've probably loaded about 5000 rounds of 40 S&W and another 500 rounds of 308 Winchester... I've invested a few dollars and it has been worth every penny. I enjoy reloading just as much as I do shooting.. It is important to have a nice and comfortable area to reload because when you reload, you want to be relaxed and comfortable.. Thats my .02 worth...
 
about 50 years as a mechanic/ weldor/fitter. My dad built and drove racing cars and started me at age 11 to do the same. Bad health got in the way of racing.
Royesses, thanks for sharing your set up, bigger isn't necessarily better as you so aptly demonstrated. Thats just a terrific piece of design, very nicely executed. You've got me seriously rethinking my plans for my reloading bench. First class work!!
 
Manny, thanx for the compliment. It started life as a harbor freight grinder stand. About $19.00 using a 20% off coupon. I still need to make a cabinet under the tray. I'll include more photos when I do that.

New photos.

My Reloading Bench is located in my 1st floor Laundry room so it is somewhat cramped but still very functional. I actually have 3 or 4 other presses that are not currently mounted/in use. The cabinets store all of my dies and assorted reloading paraphernalia and some brass too. Casting/Sizing and Tumbling is done in the garage.

As you can see I prefer to reload standing up and I am planning on upgrading the Oak shelf that the presses are mounted on to Steel in the near future.

What brand are the lube/sizers? How do the heaters work, the power cords seem to terminate into the wooden base. I ask because One looks like my RCBS that sits on an aluminum heating plate.


Hi.
I have a lyman 450 and a RCBS LamII.
Your " expensive (in España)" factory made aluminiun heating plate are my " cheap (10$)" wooden home made heating base. Its work very well during some years.
Into the wooden base is installed a 60 w resistance of a hot glue gun wrapped in aluminium foil to transmit its heat to the lubesizer. It is the same procedure as the original but with much lower cost.
Bye
