Lovin' the tractor seat stool, BE!
Looks like you could use some wire shelves all the way across the wall back of your bench, maybe room for three?

Man, I KNOW how those self caused delays can happen. When I first built my reloading room I was quite proud (and rightfully so). I had/have a whole kitchen set of nice cabinets above a good sized, VERY sturdy reloading bench. The cabinets were salvage from a kitchen fire. They were somewhat scorched but VERY suitable for the shop (just cosmetic damage).
I installed them using the provided holes. Here's where I went astray. I KNEW better but used the provided holes instead of analyzing what would give me the needed strength. It worked perfectly for many, many years. The cabinets, by now fully loaded with "heavy" stuff, had the glue joints fail because of MY failure to properly hang them and one morning I found the dismantled cabinets, full of stuff scattered everywhere on top of my bench.
I really, REALLY liked the cabinets but the budget did not allow replacing them with new cabinets. The only alternative was to rebuild the cabinets (put them back together, re-enforce, and hang them properly). I kept putting this off, using up my supply of reloaded ammo (I keep several thousand loaded rounds ahead). Finally, my procrastination resulted in me about to use up my stockpile.
The old work ethic FINALLY kicked in. I cleaned off the bench, sorted, and stacked. Then, I reassembled the cabinets, repairing as I went. The result was VERY satisfying - you can't tell it ever happened, the cabinets are stronger than ever and they are rehung in such a manner that this will NEVER happen.
The plus was the cabinet's space was now arranged better and in a more useful manner.

I can't wait until I can put in my new man cave. It's upstairs, right above my machine shop. I'll just put a cot in for those special hormonal "monster menopause woman" days and just move in..

With regards to gun control in this country, everyone should be asking themselves one question:
What is it that this government feels they need to do, but can't do, unless the citizens of this nation are first disarmed?
(I seriously doubt you can come up with any plausible answers that you will like...)

Menopause? Yeah, got that going on too.
I really need to get to the range more. It's still cheaper than therapy.

Quietmike,
Very nice looking bench. Very organized, even your ingots. I really like the vent you have for your Lee 4-20 pot.

I think I could do worse. I am lucky to have my fathers nearly 40yr old workbench to use as a load bench now.
I am moving my reloading bench downstairs soon where the walls will not be pink. This time the walls are blue and white. I will have my own bathroom and small fridge. I will post pics after August the 4th. I need to build another bench for cleaning and brass prep. The long wall is about 30 feet long. Would that make the bench to big.
After 6 years of loading in a corner of the dog / storage shed,
I finally completed a 12x12 foot insulated room all for me!
Now nobody laugh, 'casue I just moved in the last few days,
and it is still nice & tidy
Nice to finally have some room and organization
Entry door on the right of the hutch
Permanent like activity bench
the old reloading bench and inventory
Since I know someone is gonna ask, the Lyman 450 was nasty when I got it, I stripped it, boiled it out,
fixed the last guys hack job, new paint and modified by drilling a hole
in the rear of the base for a cartridge heater element (12 bucks on ebone)
and mounting a light dimmer switch in an old Sierra bullet box, to control the heat output.
Home made strong mount for the 'crusher, love it!
Now to get busy and clutter it up!
Very nice and WHITE lol. Good Job.
If one sits in thundering quiet the soul dies slow instead of yell to the heavens for all to hear and behold the righteous and upstanding and ones of which should be held with tales of woe. By C.A.S. <--- Thats Me lol.
Jim I sent you a box full of junk to put on the bench and the floor.
Jim......you need more stuff...........
