Excellent area. Very well organized with nice equipment.
That looks like a Sears workbench against the far wall. I began using one as a reloading bench over 30 years ago.

That Harbor Freight bench really is a good deal, especially to those of us who don't have the tools/time/room to build our own benches.
I had a couple holes that were not properly drilled and would not line up on mine, but was very happy with it otherwise.

I also use the existing 3/4" holes in the bench top with bolts and dowels to make other mouting points such as my press and ar mag well stand. that way I can take them off if I need full bench for work

sometimes mine does that also. what i do on the pc is rotate, save, then roate back and save. then it posts correct.
Starting from scratch and now I have enough room for a dedicated reloading bench. Area is carpeted so I am going to put a matt underneath.
This is the Home Depot fold out bench which I was impressed with for the cost. We will see how rugged the table top is though. This thing folded out in less than 3 minutes.
The bottom shelf just slides right inbetween slots in the legs. I need to bolt this to the floor and wall though cause its too light to handle the up swing on a press.

I have a Lyman turret press, Lee Single press and Lyman powder thrower to mount.
A seperate shelf will have to go onto the wall. I will have shelving over to my right for supplies.

You guys are a bunch of neat freaks. I'd be embarassed to post my multi purpose (I know where everything is, so don't touch anything) bench.
*Mutters inaudibly as he walks away to clean his bench to take pictures*
aw, c'mon guys. They cleaned up for the pictures. Just like the high school year book photos. Is that really how you looked in high school?

I can go take a pic of my reloading area without tidying up, if you'd like.
Finally got around to getting things organized again. Someone gave me that nasty looking locker and I figured I would put it to good use.

It's been awhile in the making but I finally pulled the trigger and built a reloading/gunsmithing work area! It's high enough that it's ergonomic to work standing or sitting on a stool. The drawers are 28x28" with soft close slides and real 50 BMG handles!

Looks good and the handles are a nice touch.
