Currently, I have my workshop in the basement. All of my cycling tools and spares, and my reloading stuff (dry tumble). I am not a SUPER high volume guy, but will probably reload 2-500 per month when I am shooting often (she shoots too).
I have begun keeping a pair of shoes at the entry to the room, always keep the door closed, but am concerned about lead contamination in the house. Baby currently isn't crawling, but will soon enough. We do have a living space (TV, couches etc) just outside the loading room. I have noticed walnut shells tracked into the main living space (before the shoe change option).
I always change shirt and wash with de-lead before being near baby...
Am thinking of building an insulated lean-to on the back of the garage... something like 10x20 (looking into building codes). Am in Michigan, so temperature swings will be 20-90* realistically throughout the year. I would build with a window for ventilation, and probably heat with propane flower heater in the winter.
Besides build cost, problems being in these types of temperature extremes? I am thinking more along the lines of metal expansion/contraction in a fairly tight-tolerance hobby.
Am I over thinking this? Over-protective parent?
