SiG Lady Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 Sheesh, a (work-)room with a VIEW, even!! Look at all that greenery outside the window! Looks a little a couple of shooters' garages I've had the pleasure of seeing, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeeper Posted July 19, 2003 Share Posted July 19, 2003 This thread has been around long enough that I was able to build my new benches for my second 650 and tumbler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecutts Posted July 19, 2003 Share Posted July 19, 2003 wow compared to that I am a F'ing pig. Sometimes, I clear off a 2 square foot spot on my bench to clean my pistol,but other wise it is a couple of inches deep on my bench. Jeeper do you do consult slobs on how to maintain a clean benck ?

SiG Lady Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 My reloading mini-bench got done and the SDB mounted late yesterday. Will shoot the final pic of it later today and photos back perhaps at end-of-week. What with a 3-day string of 100+ degree weather, it's been too @!#&% hot to run about in the car gettin' things done... (like going to the photo lab too many times)(Bear in mind I have no A/C in the car and it got up to 120 in the car yesterday. I can only take about 15 minutes of that before passing out.) ANYWAYYYYYY... we have a bench!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironman Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 Here is my home away from home. Where the real work gets done at my house. The brass section. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiG Lady Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 Complete with window and TV. Hmmm... nice big tumbler. (Are the Dillons really quieter than some of the others...?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironman Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 SL, I wish... I took the advice of others and got a timer and now the tumbling is done while I am sleeping. It does a lot of brass at once and I found it on eBay for the cost of the small one. My brother-in-law had to keep up with the war, so a TV got hooked up in the shop. I am not much for watching TV except for reviewing tapes on competitions. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hey QuicksDraw! Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 Thanks to this post I did not spend the weekend practicing and shooting a match as I had hoped. But NOoo, I had to show this thread to my wife. She saw how nice some of your benches are, and the others... The next thing I get the bums rush and find myself first at Home Depot then back home in an NBC gas mask installing insulation. This in preparation of the paneling and shelving I have to install this week, before the rubber floor arrives. Did I tell you that I must install that too?. I Was just Fine! Thanks you guys!!

GsT Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 My bench. It's amazing how this can take on the appearance of being somewhat tidy (without photoshop). At least it's not intentionally decieving. GsT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davecutts Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 novembers trivia: How many presses are actually on GsT's bench, oh and what brand, model, and what caliber are we loading on that one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IPSCDRL Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 And now for a contrasting point of view. It's dark, dirty, and dungeon-like. The "other" press is a Ponsness Warren 850B.

kimel Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 That ain't dirty! You need about a half inch of tumbler media and spent primers on the floor. Then it might qualify for dirty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiG Lady Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 davecutts-- ...LOL!!! IPSCDRL-- Complete with casual, reluctant-looking guard dog. How funny. Also LOL...! (floor looks clean, though...) PS: I re-photographed my setup and can be posting that sometime soon..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GsT Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 There are 7 presses on the bench, L to R: Redding T7(.308, .338Lapua), Lyman T-MagII(.50AE, .357,.38), Dillon 650(.308,.223,.40S&W), Dillon 1050(.45), RCBS Rockchucker(Everything!!), Dillon SL900(12ga.), Hollywood Sr.(.50BMG). The bench is welded up from 2"x4" rectangular steel tubing. It's 3' deep, but the first 12" is 3/8" steel plate - makes for a nice rigid bench. (The rear of the bench is just a melamine plank for collecting dust, errant primers, et. al. GsT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
