Nice set up and pile of boolits Mark .
The late construction boom here was really filling up the re-store with quality stuff.
There is enough windows to build a couple of green houses. Used cabinents, miss mixed paints donated by building supply retailers. Light fixtures, furnaces, counter tops, sinks. You just have to shop first then draw plans. I paid 15 bucks for the range hood.

Just got my NRMA bench done and moved to the basement!! Still need to move more equip and supplies in... this will be the cleanest it will ever be !!
I did some modifications to the plans, extra cross supports, MDF panels instead of plywood, moved the powder shelf-door to the top, and had enough scrap to add a drawer. 3 coats of poly satin on the work top and shelf...
Totally modular if disassembly and moving is needed, yet very, very, sturdy and rigid! About $200 total including baseplates for press mounts.

Sorry, I just saw this post looking back over the thread.
I make bell sinkers, round and finesse drop shot, and split shot. I am debating getting back into jig casting and tieing, but it has been a LONG time since I tried it last.
I was about ten years old when I helped break sprues off the heads and dip them into paint for a family friends husband that watched us when my parents worked. I got to tie a few here and there, but I never got alot of practice.

How can you guys get anything done when you are so organized? I need a hard hat and a miners lamp to get near my loading bench!
The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!
You know his wife came in and cleaned it up for viewing on the 'net!

Did I ever mention that I hate to trim brass?
Well, here's mine. In it's usual state of disarray. Just finished up doing 500 5.56 range rounds.

Ok, I'll add my little humble setup. Still a work in progress. I have to get my steel work bench set up and mount my presses to that.

I've got the itch, but don't got the scratch.
Opentop, thank you for posting a pic of a REAL loading bench! That is what mine looks like!
