Ah, can't be any worse than mine.

I went to att to pay my bill and to check on how to enter my email addy for pictures sent from phone. Oh, that will cost you $10. per month. That's alright, for now I send them to my daughter, she returns them to my mail. I still don't know how to post from my mail.

Mine don't compare to those that have been posted but it's a start. I expect to improve on it it as time passes.

When I get my parents bedroom furniture out of the garage it will free up a lot of room.

Here is my reloading set-up. It's in a corner of my garage. The presses are a Dillon 550B, Lyman Spar-T and a Lee Load All for 12 gauge. I change out .45lc and .38 on the Dillon, usually have 45-70 and .32mag on the Lyman. My 3 shooting grandkids, 16, 15 and 13 years all load their own ammo for cowboy matches. We reload 12 gauge when I can't get it cheap, same with .410 for Rhinestone Rachel's double.

That looks real nice Cherokee Slim. Did you build the little workbench in the left corner with the four drawers?

Looks like the wood workbench fron Harbor Freight. It's what I'm using for a bench at the moment. pretty nice bench for $150.

That's the workbench Harbor Freight puts on sale every month or so for about $140.00. It wasn't worth the time and energy it would take to try and build one for that price & it wouldn't look as good anyway. Youngest grandson took over all the drawers for his leatherwork.

Thanks. Have seen em in the catalogs but never saw one "in person". Probably couldn't buy the wood glue and hardware for $140. Specially if it is oak. I think recall reading they are oak.

Sweet setups all! I bought a house and moved recenttly (where I used and old bit of counter top sitting on an old sink). I just bought the lumber to build my new bench today. I am thinking about a bit larger top this time... maybe 3' deep by 8' long! Hey, what's the point of a garage if not for bench space?!? I will post pix once I have something to take a pic of excely a pile of 2" x's

Ignore my messy desk in the last photo, I have to still build the matching bottom desk, but I have plenty of storage. I really like the Pat Marlins ROCKDock aluminum press mount made for swapping out presses and it allows me to keep them out of the way when I am not using them. It is rock solid when tightened down.

Hozzie that wall mounted workbench with the two 4X4 legs is a handsome piece of work! Edit on second glance, the legs look bigger than 4X4.

Actually, the squares are made of cabinet trim that I forty-fived on each side to make the square. Inside of each one of those is 3' section of 1" black pipe with the screw on connectors that I could screw into the top and floor to keep it secure. I put my presses right over one of the pipes so there is plenty of support directly under the press.

After seeing all of those nice setups, y'all never seeing mine. I'd need a full time maid or janitor around mine. :D

Prefer the maid, though.

 

Yep they all look fabulous. Are people that tidy actually robots in human disguise? [just joking, wish I could be that tidy]
