    QUOTE: I realize that reloading is a fairly intimate experience for some people but what's with the pimp oil?

    Ha ha ha.

    I am actually a pretty simple guy.

    My wife talked me into wearing "smell good". So I made her (over time) bring home things she found pleasant to smell.

    I finally went with Giorgio Armani "Aqua Di Gio," and Kenneth Cole "Reaction".

    She paid for the "smell good" during the experimental/searching phase. But now it's my job to maintain the "smell good supply".

    You know the ole saying...

    "Women...you can't live with them, and you can't live with them". Ha ha ha.

      I no longer live at that address...hence the pics. Security is one thing, keeping your mouth shut is another.

      Safe was and is bolted to the floor with four 1/2" concrete anchors and I always place it in a corner to prevent rocking it loose.

      Wife likes for me to have a hobby. I can't complain.

        you couldn't find this because the original poster called it a reloading rig




        Here is our recently completed reloading setup.

        first, the bare bones:





        Now, with supplies & equip.:





        We had to do quite a bit of cleaning to claim this stake in the basement. We also removed the existing incandescent light and replaced it with two 4' T8 fluorescent light fixtures. You can also see that there are a couple of elec. boxes on top of the conc. wall. Those are to be added to each post, and one under the stairs. Electricity is nice.

          Here is mine, it is on it's going to be moved down into the basement soon My tumbler and shell sorter are down there already since it is quieter then my front porch



          Just your basic $25 Donation to Friends of Animals for the Desk, everything fits inside the big cabinet. Primers are in the upper drawer from the powder, and brass. Bullets and more brass are in the green top bin I will take more pics of the whole setup once I get it moved downstairs next year sometime.

            You guys have some nice clean setups and I now know where all the primers in the state have gone. I'm to ashamed to show the condition my bench is in right now but you have motivated me to clean her up. I'll tackle it this weekend after I hit the range.

                  Organization is key.


                  No government deprives its citizens of rights without asserting that its actions are "reasonable" and "necessary" for high-sounding reasons such as "public safety."
                  A right that can be regulated is no right at all, only a temporary privilege dependent upon the good will of the very government
                  officials that such right is designed to constrain.

                    I'll play, but I only have pics of my shotgun loading stuff for now. I will try to get one of the SDB set up that I made, works really well.

                          Just getting started, the bench is solid but not solidly mounted yet...one of the sacrifices of being military and moving around a lot.

                            Not really a bench - more like a cave. "Man Cave"
