Show us a picture of your reloading bench

That's a very good setup.

FredHunter how do you like your frankford wet rotary tumbler in above picture
just curious

Love the Frankford tumbler. 1-2 hours max with dawn and a pinch of lemishine and you are ready to go.

I don't remember if I posted a pic in this thread or not and there are way too many pages to look through them all so here goes...

This pic is a few years old but it still looks pretty much like this, except I've added another RCBS Powder Measure.






I have a Lyman T-Mag turret press, RCBS Rockchucker, RCBS Partner, Texas C press and an RCBS Reloader Special (not shown in pics). The T-Mag I use for handgun and .22 Hornet, .222/.223, the RC and RS for rifle, the Partner just for depriming, the old Texan, just because it was the press I started with in 1976 (it was old then.)
I could use one more shelf for dies. Oh, my bench is in a corner of the garage, at least it has heat.

To go with my other 6 shotshell loaders!

Well this will make number 14 in presses for me, (see my old post for photos)
I could not pass this up, wife said WHY do you want another press!!!!!!! I said, because I can't pass up the deal!

I RCBS Grand with all the bushings & extra parts still in unopened packaging. It is a year old, a friend bought it to help a elderly lady who's husband pass on. He used it for about 8 months, my friend went over and she had all his reloading gear there in the garage (50 bags of 500 count wads, powder in 8 & 12 pound kegs, 65 bags of new shot (all 7 1/2) 1500 primers this RCBS Grand, 4 MEC 9000GN's, Two Steelmasters, and one 600Jr. She wanted $2,000 for all of it, he told her he couldn't do that, so she said ok, $1,800 he laughed and said thanks but no... I can't take you like that and he gave her $2,500 for all...

He called me and traded me the grand for bullets... Couldn't pass that up!

It will go on the bench with the other 6 that is mounted already, redoing the room this weekend...

Reloading room

I am working this weekend on the entire room so it is a mess right now but I got some PM's asking for photos so here it goes...

a few more

Damienph...

That may not be the prettiest, or most equipped bench, but I tip my hat to you on the range of cartridges (375 Win, 7x57, 45-70, .222 Rem, .22 Hornet etc.) loaded, as well as the old books (also in my library) by PO Ackley, Ken Waters, etc.

There is a special beauty in that! A bench to be proud of.

Agreed 100%, besides my bench, this might be my favorite. The variety of calibers, the years of knowledge that shows in that bench is impressive. My hat is off to you sir!

My reloading area in the man cave

Bigarm, thats impressive. Whats the space ship robot looking thing on the right side?

I think that's c3po's head isnt it? Or r2d2, one of those.

R2D2

Yes, it is R2D2. It was a gift from my boys as was the man cave sign.

I remember seeing Star Wars when it first came out.
We went to an indoor theater that had "Quadraphonic Sound "...Oh the good ole days were not all that good...!!!

Great movie by the way if your a Sci-Fi fan..

I wonder if you could reload for the Jedi Lightsaber.


TxD

My wife's water broke with our second boy during the second movie.

This is the third or fourth site I've seen that pic on looks great on all of 'em.

Ha! What the heck is "quadrophonic sound", Don?

Guess I could google...

I like that setup flashhole. Small footprint!

And access to all sides. Having the press(es) mounted directly over the vertical upright really makes a solid mount. I built it 4 years ago and have yet to find a feature it lacks.

A bump is needed

I finally got around to building some shelves and cleaning up my reloading room today. I'm quite happy with the results.

Do you not have trouble with your knuckles hitting the table top with the trimmer like that?

I initially mounted mine like that but then rotated it 90 degrees where your cranking hand is off the edge of the work top and like it much better. Just an idea.

Your bench looks very solid.
