Picture Time !

HotGuns · December 6th, 2007, 12:24 AM

Now that we've got a reloading forum, its time to post pictures of your setups. I know that P95 and myself have done it numerous times over the years, but we've got a lot of new people here and some are interested in the hows and the whats and what they look like.

So lets do it !

Everybody like pictures...ecspecially me.

Post your stuff and lets have a look.

This is my small set-up

Soon to disappear. I am restricted to one room for all my projects and stuff so the wife can have the rest of the house. She does not tell me what to do in here (most of the time) and I don't screw with the rest of the house unless repairs are needed.
Obviously my problem is space. My books take a LOT of it and I initially thought that little nook by the window would be a great area for reloading. It had one problem though, no elbow room. Also, although I can some work on handguns outside in the porch, long guns are a different story specially with nosey neighbors.

I have plans to move stuff around & have a multi-purpose area for gun work, small repairs to other items & reloading.

Here is the current state. Just got my 550 back yesterday. Completely overhauled, replaced over $150 worth of stuff AND DIDN'T CHARGE ME A PENNY!!

Pictures would be nice since it'll give me some different ideas on how to do my set up.

Well - the pics are in another thread but to keep in spirit of this thread here they are again ...........

First pic is about 3 years ago - other is much newer and less tidy! (Glad the floor is not visible!). All based on an old cupboard, fixed to wall and modified. Gives me store space below, including drawers.

A bit messy, I do clean the work bench before starting to reload.

Here is my self make bench built less than a month ago, and my new Dillon 550B. This picture was taken before I loaded one round. It's much messier now.

Great looking pictures, all of them. Keep them coming !

I commandeered a 3' space in the laundry room between the wall and the freezer.
First kid that moves out of the house loses a bedroom!

Fatboy, we can tell you just started. Clean walls, inmaculate table, no weird cans holding brass by the thousands, no clutter.

We may ask for another pic in 6 months!
