Pictures of your reloading bench/equipment

Ronno,

Thanks, but it seems like where I break down is my image file size and in spite of all the net help, I still can't get it figured out how to get that taken care of.

A friend was telling about their grand child who is still at the level of saying mama, dadda, and no, but can go to the TV and DVD player, turn them on, put in a DVD, and make it all work.

That is why I need a four year old around here!

Keep em coming!

From your private message, I thought you were going to send me some pictures to post for you. You've got my email. Send'em up!
 
Sorry Mike,

I tried last night, and no luck then today was busy and didn't get em out.

It is on the list for early Thursday, BEFORE I even get to use my brand new arrived today LBT boolit mold.

Seems like every time I try to send photographs, it is a learn it all over again process.

So, if I can't get the file images I have sent out, I will take some new ones.

Keep after me and don't give up.

Boy do I need a four year old to help with the pooter!!!!!!!!

Keep em coming!

These are pictures from "Crusty Deary Ol'Coot". I told him I would post these for him.

This is the most interesting mount system I've seen. I'm assuming he's a machinist/welder, of at the very least, a handy guy in the shop. I would be very interested in a mounting setup like this.

This Thread could make someone depressed! No really, I am very happy in my little corner of my room doing my thang. I have as much fun reloading as I do shooting.:D
 
Mike, thanks for the posting of the images.

I am happy to answer any questions anyone might have.

Send me a PM and we can chat as long as there are any questions.

I do have a couple of recomendations that might be of value for anyone interested in their own under bench system.

Keep em coming!

The cneter table is now covered i stainless steel to match the others. Nice and cozy in my basement. Loading bench frame is 2"x2"x1/4" steel tube, full welded and bolted to a block wall. Let's see that move.
 
Wow Jimbo, very nice. I would have to pinch myself from time to time to see If I had something that nice If I was dreaming. One thing I have got for others to druel is I have my own range in my backyard that really is a Big plus and deer hunt out my living room window from time to time.:D I'll post some photos when my tenager gets home this evening. (still learning about posting pics)
 
WOW Farmland,

I'd really like to have my own range!!!!!!

That IS an understatement.

However, I am able to hunt just minutes walk from the house and have taken critters there the last couple years.

Saw some ELK there a short time back and may try for one of them come hunting season.

AND, I know what you mean about having someone post stuff.

Keep em coming!

I'm not sure if I could reload without a range. I am so use to just stepping out the door into the test range. I have an all weather 24hr 100 yard range, 25 yard pistol and right now a 250 yard rage. We are working to expand it to 500 yards, not that I need that much but my buddy with the heavy equipment wants it that long.

I test shoot all of my loads prior to making them in bulk it would kill me to have to travel to a range.

Jimbo-Indy, One thing I'd like to add is if your room was mine, That tv would have to go(talking about distractions) in a reloading area. For me anyhow. Plus, you see me watch very little TV. Maybe one movie a year. Other than that, Love your area.
 
my little corner of the world.......

this is my little corner of the world, which is like half my living room.....lol.......I've really enjoyed looking through this thread, some of you guys have got fantastic setups. Maybe one day.....................

Don't have any pictures of my setup, but it consists of a Lee Pro 1000 ( yes it works fine with a little bit of care thank you ) mounted to a 3" X 3" x 6" long thick angle. The angle then clamps into the bench vise allowing for a sturdy setup that can be removed at any time. ( No, that's not a beer bottle cap crimper. . . )

The next step is going to be taking a 18 X 24 ish steel or fiberglass pan ( think lunch tray ) cut a slot in the center so the angle can pass through and then I'll have a good working surface rather than dropping down to bench top level each time I want to pickup another bullet.

As some have said on other boards, put the scale on a shelf at eye level for ease of reading.
