Default Pictures of Your Reloading Setup

I've gotten a lot of good ideas for organization for my very basic reloading bench from The High Road's reloading forum, and I didn't see a picture thread on CGN, so I figured I would start one.

So, pictures of your setup for ideas!

Three SDB's on a steel plate that is in a large vise that can swivel for access to all three when needed. Small area of garage, but works for me.





Shotshell part.... the overhead rafters carry a hopper that holds 100# of shot because I got tired of lifting the bags to fill the bottles.

Default Dillons are my choice

A 1050 athat runs .45 and a 550B that runs 10mm. My shop is a Sanctuary and it calms me to putter-around in it.

Am I missing something here, where are your fire extinguishers guys? Should be right next to your reloading bench. Iareconfuse has one! Good job.

Here are a few older pictures.

This is a custom-made reloading bench in my office. I also reload for shotshell. (Attached pictures shows home-cast Lyman 525-grain sabot slugs).

Honestly, this thread should be stickied. Seeing other people's pictures gives us some really good ideas to mimic and utilize.

Yes, please sticky - there's much to learn from other people's setups. I wish I had some pics of my setup when it was in it's prime, however it's all packed away now that I'm living in the Southern Hemisphere.

I have a very limited space (100 square feet) to cram everything in.
I made a quick-change base for my press. There is a threaded plate mounted under the bench.



Tooling mounted on the pegboard

Well, for a trip down memory lane regarding this - hope this isn't too much of a tangent for some of you:
