Been loading in the basement for years. Most people have a tendency to put their reloading stuff in a cubbyhole. Decided to move it to the garage where I could see out better.
Now I can ocassionally see interesting things while reloading.
In your pic of the reloading bench, the cabinet on top seems taller than in the original plans, Is it? Also I would really like to know what kind of wood you used.
Thank you for your time and picture

Kip,
Welcome to PM! Great looking bench you have there.
I had to go with the close quarters approach. It is surprisingly stable. I built a few for friends and family. I load 340 Wby to .17 Rem. Some guys load in their easy chairs.. I highly discourage that practice.
Hey. There is a thread on reloading room photos in the RELOADING & AMMO section. Please add some to that. I was looking for some ideas about reloading rooms.

I built the same bench as huntsman22 albeit not as nice as his and post a long thread on it here. I hope that help you and i really reccommend this design, it works really well. Good luck and let us know what you decide.

Thanks for looking /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif
I have a table with the same kind of particle board top as this one of yours, but the legs don't fold. Have you found that the top has held up to reloading so far, and would you use a sheet of plywood or other material for reinforcement or is it even necessary?
Here is a picture of my little corner of the garage that my wife said I could have. A set of cabinets over the bench all the way to the ceiling will finish it out once my buddy gets them built for me.
