Default New reloading bench

Really happy with my new bench. I had basically the same thing before but it was cheap Home Depot cabinets. I had a cabinet maker come in and remake it with better wood, drawer glides, and better construction. Now I've got a lot more room so I can add more stuff.

Man, that looks great and neat too.
Wished mine was that neat but I'm afraid if I moved anything I wouldn't be able to find it again.

I feel like an unwashed heathen, reloading on my tool bench in the garage. WOW. You could have a dinner party in that room.

pmhayden nailed it. That is what some people would call a dining room. One of the advantages of being single is I don't host a lot of dinner parties. It's neat now but won't last forever, although that's the good part of all those drawers. Place for everything.

Three items missing on the bench: RCBS Charge Master 1500 Combo, RCBS Trim Pro power trimmer, and a Hornady LNL AP press. Keep the Forster CO-AX.

My Lee powder dippers are in the top drawer, they're good enough for what I do and most of my reloading is pistol so I don't need a case trimmer. I do have the Lyman case prep center but haven't moved it to the bench yet. I do like it but quite honestly I don't use it all that often.

A little advice: Keep up with the cleaning. Mine was a thing of beauty, but over the past year or so I'm afraid it has become, to put it politely, somewhat "cluttered".

(It's a hot mess.)

You never have enough drawers and stuff, like a garage, it's never large enough.

Magic it must be how things keep arriving and showing up on the bench.

It's a Law of Life, Be it a bench or a garage.

Your stuff is directly proportional to your space

It will fill up!

"Now I've got a lot more room so I can add more stuff"

Aw, really?! So that's how you're supposed to do it! Now I have to start over!

Then...


Now...
