Nothing spectacular but it works for me
Looks good to me DD; maybe a little to neat, but aught to work just fine.
Cleaned up my bench and made some changes, it gets most jobs done and Amos enjoys his new spot..
Ill be as nice as you let me and as mean as you make me, your Choice
An updated photo from about a year ago, when I returned to shooting and reloading. Thanks for looking.
I just got to the end of this treasure trove of info and inspiration after spending the last several days perusing this entire thread. Tremendous amount of good ideas I fully intend to steal from in creating my own personal heaven. Thanks to those who took the time to post, Awesome thread!!!
hotwheelz,
That reload room looks good on Amos!
OJC,
Good to see a fellow loader returning to the "fold"!
Best regards

Some very nice setups
Welcome to the board Mangy coyote.
Figured I would share a picture of my 'apartment' reloading setup up here in NH. Not as good as my shop in FL as I cant grind/sand/refinish, but it is more than acceptable considering I am in an apartment amongst people who would probably lift their noses high if they new the contents of my dwelling. Exeter, for NH, is a liberal bastion...but I am doing my best to represent amongst the Phillistines!
Oh and I just put the Gadsten flag up this evening which was a gift from my niece last Xmas.

Nice looking Gerstner box, Ole Joe.

Thanks,Originally Posted by smokeywolf
I've had it since 1965.
You've obviously taken fine care of it. The American made Gerstners are the best. Red oak or cherry? I have a 92-XL (now called a 2613) in Cherry.

I'm not sure of the wood, because it was the display model at Ford Tool and Carbide and the only one they had in stock. The sticky where the model is blank. I think it is mahogany, because the wood is similar to a Martin acoustic guitar that I have.
I have better photos of it somewhere on the computer, but I can't find them. It needs a good cleaning and polishing.
Here they are, they were in the photo file called "Tool Box." No wonder I couldn't find them. The box has been a part of my work life and now is an important part of my musical hobby and reloading. It also is full of memories.
I would like to see photo of yours, unless we get in trouble for straying from the original subject.

Here is my entry. Still getting stuff together and need to sell off a couple things I do not need, but getting there.
Ole Joe Clarke...
That is a beautiful Tool box. I was a Hosiery Mechanic for 25+ years before I retired. All the older guys had those. Us new boys had to buy the Metal Kennedy tool boxes I see cheap knock off's at SAM's club from time to time but never the really nice ones anymore. The little draws are the key to those boxes. a man needs those for holding all the small screws and parts he collects over the years that just can't be bought any longer.. Thanks for sharing. It brought back a lot of good memories..

If you get the chance, head to Epping if you haven't and hit the Pro Shop. Better yet, get some training there! Best you'll find!!!
BTW, I use the same bench. Can't go wrong with that HF bench with a coupon!
I can not know what I don't know.
Here is mine not pretty but reasonably functional. It is a mess now because of my new press, once it get it mounted it will get cleaned up.
All those super clean loading benches were starting to be depressing, now THAT looks a lot like my bench!
