Lets see your benches!

DZ · Mar 10, 2009

The old bench just wasnt cutting it anymore. No room for handgun and rifle reloading, so I started fresh.

Reloading Bench v1.0

Reloading Bench v1.1

Reloading Bench v2.0

Hopefully I won't need to add on to this one for a while.

you've been busy. last pic i saw was v1.1 i guess.

i'm digging the custom lighting. was it hard to break diamond plate?

herr.baer · Mar 10, 2009

Here is mine plus some work I did on it.

DZ · Mar 10, 2009

hole- the 4' flourescent is a home depot special. just some crappy aluminum foil pressed to look like diamond plate. sure wish i had the setup to do that kind of sheetmetal work.

baer, that wood burning is a nice touch.

My main setup in the basement, and my press upstairs for those slow weekends at work

Thanks. The Colt in actually routered out and filled with clear coat. The Smith sign was too small for that so I just wood burned it.

A clean bench is the sign of a dirty mind

Not that Im trying to trick anyone into believing I have a clean mind, but it was only clean for about an hour. Its got brass in different stages of prep everywhere now.

Very nice set up IDrive. I'm impressed.

Here is what I have going on right now, a work in progress

guthook · Mar 11, 2009

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*

Man you guys are way to fancy for me . I have a BMW motorcycle engine and tranny sitting next to my Lee press . I'm not worthy . :bowdown:

Man Reloading while watching porn on the internet and chugging sugar-filled sodas Remind me never to shoot any of your "slow weekend" stuff, I have a feeling you could easily double charge or something with all that distraction.
But I love it!

guthook · Mar 12, 2009

OK, here's the "after tidying up" pictures: :sad20:

Don't worry ATF, the ones on the right are empty and used for storage.

Some cleaning and prep accessories:

Press, dies and many other things:

The mirror is for watching the TV behind me:

Bullets to feed that hungry brass:

Now mind you, all of these things aren't on the bench while I work, that's what pool tables are for.

they all get charged and bullets seated in the basement, aka fortress of solitude. I only sort, size, trim, prime and crimp upstairs, that way, there are no mistakes, and I don't spill powder on the carpet. The tedious buisy work helps pass the time.

nice benches but it just looks like way too much work.
I find it difficult to get motivated to just clean my guns
If I had to reload I would never have any ammo to shot.

Here are some pics of my bench, its messy right now. Under the blue cover is a Dillon 550 B. Under the red cover is a MEC grabber in 12 gauge. Also on the bench are a Lyman Orange Crusher, a Lyman All American Turret, MEC Grabbers in 16 & 20 and a MEC JR in 10. Also a PW 375 in 12.

Lets see your benches!
