Reloading setups

Nice set up OP! I don't do a ton of reloading, but I really like this bench I fashioned out of two craftsman tool chests. Love the drawers that hold a ton of weight. My press is not bench mounted, but is on a movable stand so that I can move it in and out of the way when not needed.

I needed to rearrange my room to add a gun safe so built a workbench for added counter top for working with rifle instead of on the kitchen table. This is the 3rd bedroom and is small, house is 960sf. Bench is 48x20x34 or 36 high, don't remember exactly. A lot nicer having a work space in the room to hold guns and arrow saw. The overhang on front allows me to clamp a small vise, case trimmer, etc items for temporary use. All from scrap material had laying around. Whole room is about a 9x11.
Here is a full 360° view of my room since that table picture wasn't that great. Room dimensions are actually 7.5'x11'.

This is different and looks awesome! I have an old Snap On box in the garage that has become a storage shelf for the wife. I may integrate it in to my setup after seeing this!!

I, like your stand. What I did was get a break hub from a bus or big truck. Weld some rebar on the inside, fill it with cement. Turn it over and weld a pipe however long you want it to be. Weld it vertical in the center. you may need to put a plate over the hole if it is to big in dia. Then weld a plate on the top of the pipe. It is moveable, but you can do about any thing on it and it will not tip over.
 
Most of you guys are neat-niks compared to me.
Once I sold the '64 El Camino, I took over that bay in the garage. After I sold my motorcycles, my wife took over the other one.
Like a "where's Waldo" picture, where's the loading bench?

Not here to judge lol, I definitely spent time cleaning up my area before I took my pic!!

I particularly like the C channel mounting block you have for your Wilson trimmer.
 
They are little more full these days and a lot less organized. ;)
