Show us a picture of your reloading bench

[Dale shaver]

Thanks 12x16 Dutch Barn with an L shaped work bench and a loft. It's old around 25 years or so. I got cable TV in it and I use a Kerosene heater in the winter and a small window A/C unit in the summer with a couple fans to cool things (me) down.

We are very similar, reloading shop detached from main living quarters. Gives me a chance to slip out and be away from the family for a while. Unfortunately it also is for storage. Attic is chocked full of boxes clothes, garage sale, and stuff we might use in the future. But, reloading items not far away.

Same with me...well kind of.. it's in the basement but wife and kids don't go in that portion of basement.

Here's my reloading room, which is located in the basement.

Thanks I guess i should have introduced my self, sorry bout that, but I'm juggling a call with some very annoying manager types..... lol And thanks on the room, been my favorite room in the house for 15 years now, and notice I didn't say the room with the most fun <wink wink>

Yeah it’s not much but it’s a start and I’m having fun putting it together I might add more bracing as I see fit but for now it works!

Looks good!
Just a thought: if you double the plywood top (glued & screwed) you’ll have a really solid setup, no braces needed. Your base is awesome. Are those 6x6’s?

 

[horsemen61]

Drband those are 4x4’s it’s outside so I used pressure treated where I could and yes I may do that

I built my first reloading bench earlier this year. Now I'm addicted. I told my wife she's going to have to get a hobby

How do you like the closed cabinets/drawers??

When I built mine:



I made it adaptable to add doors and drawers once I sorted things out, but now am not so sure I want to add them. I've got a rolling tool box for the small stuff and kind of like the ease of seeing where everything is without opening stuff. My reloading room is under my 3 car garage with vault door and on it's own zone for HVAC, not much of a dust problem.

Nice Dirt Farmer...and that coat of Polyurethane is such a simple step, that makes the bench much nicer in the long run.

I used a 6 foot Gladiator workbench for my latest reloading bench. I have the Inline Fabricating Quick change bench plates and docks to rotate my presses.

My grandfather's CB handle was Dirt Farmer.

My little bench

Note the swing arm lamp.
I have attached one to each corner of the bench cabinet for best illumination of my reloading process.
When not needed they are simply moved out of the way.

I really like the swing arm lamp.
Great idea.

So I just got the approval from the the better half that I could build a new bench you better believe I got right on that before she had second thoughts! Anyways I went with 4x4’s for the legs birch finished plywood 2 layers for a thickness of 1.75 inches on top and 2x4’s for the cross supports I’m super happy with it it’s a huge improvement over the tiny thing I was using before now I just gotta figure out where to put all of my things also I stuck a pice if 2x6 under where the press is for more support

[Ole Joe Clark]

That's a good looking table. I need another small, sturdy one. I have another large one, just don't have room for it.

Have a blessed day
