    Let's see your benches!

    Just put together my bench and got the press part way setup today. Still need to acquire some other things, but it's a work in progress.

    Was going to build a bench, but I found this Kobalt bench at lowes for $190 and bought it. Plenty of storage, built in light, and built in 5 outlet power strip. After Christmas I'll be adding a RCBS rock chucker to the other end. The only thing was the wood wasn't thick enough, so I went and bought a 2x4' piece of 3/4" oak ply and bolted it to the top of the original piece of wood, now it's well over an inch thick and solid for the Dillon.

    Let's see the rest of you guys' reloading areas.

    This is my first and last reloading bench. I built it five years ago using roughly $300 worth of materials. It suits my needs perfectly. Notice my homemade stainless steel media tumbler that pulls out for access and a repurposed cabinet I got from work to store my large jugs of powder and other stuff.

    Here is a link to my thread on how to make your own tumbler: http://www.weaponevolution.com/forum...ead.php?t=6349

    Nothing special, don't have a lot of extra room in the house with the baby due soon. But it works for me.

    Also just an FYI.. fluorescent lights will interfere with some electronic scales just thought I would throw that out there for anyone that didn't know already.
    Just a regular guy.

    My simple bench. Single stage press, powder measure, case prep station, etc. All my dies are in the big green bucket down below along with other items like lube, manuals, etc. I keep my powder and primers inside in ammo cans stored inside the house except for what I'm using at the moment. I reload in the garage (attached and insulated) but I don't want to take any chances on any of it getting compromised.

    Okay, okay.... A pic of mine right now would be embarrassing. It becomes a junk pile in the winter. Too cold outside to put things where they belong so everything just gets tossed on the bench.

    I've got two tables, I intended to have one as my single stage table and one as my progressive table, but as everything in my life, the plans go out the window. I have both my presses on the big table and the little table i work on things.
