Design and building a reloading room

[DizzyJ]

I'll start making a list and let you know what I need. Thanks...

I'm sure for the right price I can accommodate you.

I have decided to build my upper cabinets just for that reason. They metal cabinets I have the shelves are only 8 1/8 inch between And have no idea what the size of an 8 pound keg is but not knowing and installing these cabinets would surely bite me in the Azz...

Jim, you could always use those cabinets to store brass or bullets or reloading dies too. Kind of like I did with my cupboard cabinets in my garage:


One thing about it, you can NEVER have too much cabinet storage space or too much counter top... Its like having too many tools, it just doesn't happen...

An 8 pound keg of Accurate #5
L. 5 1/2" W. 5 1/2" H. 11"

Well I've had the bug lately preventing me from getting out and doing very much but when I do get out here, look out.... I loose all sense of time...

Door and threshold, check!!!





I got froggy making a riser for each press out of wood, since "I weld Wood"...

Im sure I'll find a place for them somewhere I just didn't realize the shelves weren't adjustable....
As far as storage space I'll have one of my 3'x6' metal storage lockers cleaned out & placed in the bench cabinets.



And my brass sorting area out in the big room to keep the surgical room spotless for a while...

I may have one for sale later on, have to figure out what all I acquire before the end of the year.

Well boys and girls, it's time for me to start posting in the ammo/reloading section since the room has turned out it's first loads for the .40S&W!!!






I had been wanting to get away from the rink-dink scale support so I built a scale condo with a garage....
Don't laugh!!!

 

[DizzyJ]

I like it!

 

[Caveman Jim]

First load development scored with lower dosage grouping the best!!!

 

[Caveman Jim]

So I got a sudden urge to never again look at my unpainted door....






And did some accessorizing...
Almost done!!!!!

 

[gunfreak]

That's a sweet space.

Thanks for that. It's been a good project that has taken almost a full year to complete and it's almost >>> • <<< there.

Looking awesome Jim! Did you ever plumb some compressed air in there? I can't remember. Senior moment.

Thanks Bro, my SIL is in Elk mode right now so it'll have to wait for a while. He does have the fittings and 1/2 Pex tubing though...
I need to build two upper cabinets for the reloading tools, dies and whatnot.
Also want to build a sliding/pegboard cabinet for the maint/build bench to hold all the tools.
I guess it's nowhere near done!!!

It's all good. You'll probably remodel it twice before you move and leave it all there anyway.
