    Reloading with no room

    Thought I'd post a pic of my bench. My house is 1050 square feet and has no room for a dedicated bench. I found a design on line to mount a Lee single stage press to a Black& Decker WorkMate which folds up nicely. I keep powder in the house, everything else goes in the garage in tubs specific to each caliber. Whatever works, right?

    A Lee hand press and the rest of everything you need to reload fits inside a shoebox.

            I have limited space in my garage so I use c-clamps to hold my Dillon 550 to the bench when I am using it. When I need the space for other things I store the press on a shelf against the back wall.

              Yep, it doesn't take much space at all to reload, though it certainly helps you lay your setup out so it isn't all cramped. But good job making do with what you've got.

                Wuluf I started out with Lee hand press and keep all of my reloading tools and components in a large plastic tool box. I lived in a 1 bedroom apartment for 4 years and a 875 sq ft. condo also for 4 years back in the days. In both places my hand press sufficed for the task at hand and tucked away when not in use.

                Actually your set up looks good. My current loading bench is just a tad longer than your black desk. But then again I'm a KISS reloader.

                        Looks good, nice view too

                        Once I moved the reloading setup out of the garage , and into a dedicated room in the house...I started reloading 12 months out of the year.

                            I put two layers of plywood on top of a Workmate I found used for 40 bucks. I mounted my 550B on it.
