What does your shop look like?

My bench does double duty. I have a table drill press and a band saw, but no mill or lathe. I mostly work on my own guns, some family and select friends also.
It doubles as my shotgun reloading bench also, and I have an old microwave stand off to the right for a metallic reloading bench.

Mine is a double duty 14x14 room inside a bigger 50x60 mechanics style shop. Its got AC and heat. I have a grizzly 12x36 lathe combo with 3/4hp gearhead mill in there as well as a big bench and some (not enough) storage.

I do gunsmithing, reloading, and other machinist tasks in there. Its a big mess currently as im working to reorganize and have a few unfinished projects floating around. The bench is made from 2bys and has a 1/4" steel top on half of it.

Mine are a depressing reminder of how much I have to do to make them presentable.

I did finally separate the machine equipment from the fab though. Pretty good wind block for my range as well, that bench up there in the shade is 50 yards back from the bullet trap.

Don't be fooled by my benches they get the double duty treatment all of the time.

This is the corner of my insulated and air conditioned garage shop. The rest is dedicated to woodworking so I made some drawers to keep some of the dust down on my gun tools. I haven’t reloaded anything since moving out here but I know I will need to thoroughly clean my presses before I do. My work bench is lag screwed into the wall studs and double layer 3/4” plywood top with t-track inlay.

Cool shop.I noticed you have a 4 legged minion under your bench and it probably never leaves your side.
