I'm about to close on a house. I was over there yesterday for the home inspection which went very well. While I was down in the basement with the inspector I was thinking about where I could setup my reloading bench.
80% of the basement is nicely finished and the other 20% is a utility room. In this room is the gas furnace, water heater, fuse box, washer, dryer and a sink. The laudry related stuff is at the back of the room and toward the front on the right is the furnace and on the left wall is the fuse box. Most of the extra room is towards the front, but the furnace and fuse box present a problem for me.
If I place my reloading equipment near the fuse box, this is a danger because when you screw in fuses they will sometimes spark...yikes. The furnace on the opposite side has a pilot light (flame)...yikes again. There isn't any easy way to wall off either of these items since they are on opposite walls.
I'll post some pics when I get a chance....it could be a few days...but in the meantime has anyone else dealt with similiar situations? I'm starting to think I may be better off in the garage.
