My press is on a sturdy workbench in the garage that was built by my Grandpa many years ago. If you look closely at the joints between the 2x6 top boards you can still find spots of spilled Testors model car paint from my childhood. I will never ever resurface this bench. I bought 4 large ammo crates with o-ringed lids to store reloading items: one for bullets, one for processed brass, one for dies and turrets, and one for all other assorted reloading goodies. These crates stay in the garage and each has a large reusable desiccant package. Powder and primers stay indoors in our storage room.
It is the only workbench in the garage, so I do occasionally need to remove the presss for other projects, but that is a rare occurrence. I've worked for the same small company for 16 years now, and my employer shares similar interests. We are commercial mechanical contractors but we take our off-time goofing around very seriously. The shop is 10 minutes from home and we have a full metal fabrication section, a 2 post automotive lift, and all the tools one could need. Nearly all of my projects take place at the shop. This allows me to use the home garage for vehicle storage and reloading almost exclusively.
