That's exactly what I was thinking, I was so ashamed when I saw some of these pics that I immediately went to work organizing my workspace.
Currently organizing my storage space, soon I might have a pic that's worthy.
 
Therapy

I will now need at least 2 years of Intense Therapy after looking through this thread. I would have to clean my work area (read clkuttered basement) for two weeks and shop the Blue Press with some of all y'all's (Thta's the possesive plural of y'all) money to be right in the head again.

:neener:
 
Here's my little hole in the garage. It's not much, but it does the job.

"Thou shalt not covet........"

Yeah, but my "setup" is out in the garage. My press is clamped to a Workmate and I unfasten it after every session (can get very humid) and store it inside. I keep the bulk of my equipment in a large Sears multilevel tool box that has a telescoping handle- sort of like the luggage you see going thru airports. I roll it out when I need it, it's pretty handy. I keep my powder/primers in the air conditioned utility room that opens into the garage, so at least it's on the way. I really envy those of you with permanent setups in basements. Last night I was working in the garage and my wife asked me, "How do you even get BACK there?" Garage could use a couple of yard sales. I do have a nice Steelcase chair and an adjoining table to use. I do a lot of prep work in the den if there is a good old movie on, but I waste a lot of time in setup/breakdown.

(note the self-propelled brass chaser in two of the images)
 
Finally snapped a few pics of my setup. It's quite modest, but it does the job. All my componets are cleaned up and in the background so it's nice and pretty.

Although it's not all pictured I us

Can you tell I like my 06??

Just borrowed my parents new digi-cam let me know what ya think. BTW I suck at taking pictures as you can tell.

The best thing is she saw a pic where somone had a Winchester floor mat and she suggested that I get one for my table. I've got to love her.

Nope, no TGO. That's just an multi purpose gun case.

I use it if I'm taking more then 4 pistols with me. I have foam in there that allows me to carry 8 pistols in it w/o any of them touching.
 
Here's mine.

Pic#1: (while not reloading) Yes, the boxes are filled with shotgun hulls, it was worse. I gave away 4 boxes of the new AA's that I'm not going to reload. Yes, it also my "work bench".

Pic #2 With both presses setup, (12ga Lee Load Fast Progressive and 20ga Lee Load All for my daughter). I shoot about 100-150 and she shoots 50-100 rds a week, so it works out well. I also keep shoot in Detergent/fabric softner bottles. Stronger then milk jugs, plus my shells always smell "April Fresh."

Pic #3 My "Semi-Automatic, Voice Activated Wad Dispenser" until he gets tired or bored. AKA My Son. He also loves to use his sisters Load-All. I position and move the hull, he likes to pull the handle and throw the charge bar.

Why didn't you post that in the pic of reloading benches instead of opening a thread that has not had a post in 5 years?
