    That's the whole point of the the thread to see where the magic REALLY happens.

    Seriously though...you can look at any forum out there and see pictures of sanitized and organized reloading areas, rooms and whatnot.

    But what does the average guys stuff ACTUALLY look like on a daily basis?

    I cant post a picture of my bench now. Heck I'm not sure if I remember what it looks like. I believe it has a wood top but it hasn't been seen in awhile.

    Now there's what a working bench looks like. And believe it or not, I know where EVERYTHING is.

    (and that's a Diet Dr. Pepper in the can holder)


    There's only one press visible because I only mount the press, sizer or scale that I need at the time. The top of the bench is drilled for each one and they are stored in another room in their own individually labeled Tupperware boxes. That's why you don't see my Chargemaster or Rock Chucker or Uniflows or any of the Stars or Lyman/Ideal lubers and their heaters shown here. Each one gets fastened with long bolts and wingnuts and is quickly changeable. I can mount up to four at one time on the bench if needed, but I usually just have the one up there.

    I did have a pretty long organizing morning about three weeks ago. I am going to try and keep it clean. Added some new lights too, which are working out great!

    For a few moments in time and space when you could actually see the top.

    The only thing lost in the pile is my mind, and I'm not sure how long it's been gone.
    I resemble that remark !

    I didn't do the whole floor....but I added a anti-fatigue mat along the bench and its really improved my quality of life!

    It saves a dropped bullet from getting smashed, too.

    I would but the last time I seen my camera was last fall when I took some pictures of some stuff I bought at an auction.
    The bench was uncovered about 5 of 6 years ago when we got flooded out and I had to move all the stuff out of the garage to clean out the ruined mess. Moved it all back in and in the process of getting it arranged. Keep finding more reloading stuff and just putting it close to where I know it will end up once I get it all arranged to where I want it. My wife said I'm a hoarder, but I fooled her, I'm worse than that, but when I retire, I'm going to make time to organize the garage including the corner for reloading.

    Mine just looks like boxes at the moment, everything has been broken down and stored for moving.

    Ok, Beagle333' s bench is a bit more cluttered than mine, but mine takes up a short wall of the shed, with a shelf underneath. And I don't have a smoke detector on top....
