Show off those reloading stations

[tlo7mm]

Take a look at my reloading station, albeit temporary but adaquate. Feel free to add your pictures to the post.

[slimjim]

temporary!?!? Wow, what a slick looking operation! I don't have one square-foot of my loading bench that looks that organized. Is that a mule deer rack off to the right?

Far too tidy mate. I was always taught that a neat and tidy desk is a sign of a sick mind...or a desk that doesn't get anywhere near enough use.

I ain't showin' mine again...I can't get near it at the moment...my garage is full of my kids stuff.

Cheers, Vince

This is one of my benches, the other is out in the garage and like Vince says, I can't get to it because of the kids cars, motorcycles and what not.....

I love my home-made reloading area!

One eyed one horned flyin purple people eater keeps an eye on things when I go fer a potty break....

Just noticed the OAL on the recipe card is WRONG....hmm...gonna have to fire my lil purple guard, someone got to my Sharpie and changed my data.

That's better...

[fnuser]

you guy's are intimidating, I couldn't use mine for a couple months last year because a wren built its nest in one of my bookshelves

[Pumpkinslinger]

We've done this before so I'll use the same pic. Besides, I can't even see the top of my bench right now...

[gelandangan]

dam you guys are NEAT!!!
I cant see the top of my bench!!

I noticed that none of you have a quick change bench mount for the presses.
But then again most looks like only have 2 press or less..
I got 5 press and 1 sizer.. without quick change mount, I cannot work at all.

[Vince]

Haven't seen an under bench light yet either...eh Gelan.

Cheers, Vince

I'm to disgusted with myself to put up a photo.
One day I will get around to a tidy up.
But I just can't part with anything.
Its a disease. I think I'll need to get my brain fixed so I can move on in life.
That is before I buy some more gear to add to the shelves, the floor, the cupboards, the boxes, aaaaaaggggggggghhhhhhhh

Here is the World Premiere view of the "Gelan Reloading Corner"..
You guys are the VERY first "outsider" that ever view this.. ever..

On the right hook, is the line up of my loading presses from right most,
- Dillon SDB-II currently in 38 SPL setting
- CH circa 1945 press
- Redding T7
- old Super Simplex that I use purely to decap shells.
- RCBS Lubrisizer
- ah yah, and there is a blue little bench vise that I use for odd jobs.

And on the main bench is the "new" Lyman Orange Crusher

Anything not being used immediately is shoved under the table or on the shelf if I could find a place for it.
I am a menace to horizontal surfaces..

Oh and there is a photo of "Gelan Quick Mount Prototype I" that I have used for the last few years.

Please wear steel toe boots and watch your step..

my bench is only neat because I cleaned it up for the picture. I am deffinitly interested in the quick change bench mopunt as I have 2 other presses and am looking at getting another. I deffinitly need to get some more dies and bullets as well as other gaggets it looks like in order to keep up with Joneses as it were. Oh and sorry I was not aware that this was already done otherwise I would have just offered to share my bench and not ask everyone else to do so. Anyway the setups look great, i just finished my new bench for the most part and will be posting a pic of it tomorrow hopefully. Considering I just started accumulating reloading equipment in February with the purchase of a reloading kit I think I have a heck of a selection of stuff though. I just need a few more guns to go with some of the bullets/brass and other essential reloading stuff that I have. I am only actually currently reloading for 3 guns right now but those are all dies/bullets/brass for several other guns I don't even have. I was given a cash of equipment and all that stuff came with it. Oh and if anyone knows of someone that needs some Herters stuff I have some that I am willing to give someone. Also some one asked about the horns in my picture, if you go to Misc under Elk/Deer/Caribu on the photo album you can get a look at the horns. They are Elk and there is a black tail rack also. Anyway thanks all fore sharing.

I resemble that remark Tiks.

Everything has a use...sooner or later, and the day after you throw something out into the rubbish you will be looking for it because it is needed.

Here ya go T Lo...sort half expect ya to burst into song mate...sorry, slipped of the topic there for a second, here is the original shooting bench thread:

Mine bench's gota be neat. It's in my living room. Everything sans stripped presses gets moved into storage when done. I'd set it up in the garage but I have way too much going in there- 4 motorcycles, 1 pickup, bicycles, tire's get changed daily at times, surfboards, camping gear, veh's being serviced, there's a lot going on in there and too many chemicals. I aitn no neat freak but I use my garage as just that...and a small shop sometimes. So I have to be organized. Last thing I need is a reloading center in here...Took this pic standing where my truck goes and my back against my workbench. I was taught never to leave a mess or unorganised work space- it's unsafe and my Uncle/Pop would simply knock the crap outta me so...I'm in here everyday, hours a day, doing something. I can't deal with messy workplaces.....woof....
