Where is your reloading room/equipment ????

Welcome. Beer is on Vince, sage old timer advise from Bushy, technical articles by Slim and discipline by Suz. Hint, find a convenient climbing tree. ;-)

She carries a switch and doesn't hesitate to use it.

Hey all! I know this is an older post, but I'm new here so please cut me some slack.

This is a good place for that, I see lots of "slack" around here hehe.

My reloading room is in a shed out behind the house. Ac/heat and well insulated.

Have my single stage on the left side coming in, and my Dillon progressive on the right. All my powder, primers, and various accessories are in a cabinet just inside the door. I use 30 round ammo cans for once fired brass and coffee cans for brass cleaned and processed ready to prime and load.

It's nice and cozy and peaceful. Very Happy

Sounds neat. Post some picts!

Hell I don't bite, (a stout stick is all I need) so was wondering what sort of set up do you have for the heat and a/c? I'd like to air condition my 2 car garage, but it's not insulated and has an attic space. Just wonderin what you did.

Suz,
You weren't asking me but I put R-19 in the walls (2x6 construction) and R-60 in the attic space. I used fiberglass roll insulation but if you want better insulation use foam. (if money is no object) I will be installing a heat pump to heat and cool both the garage and my shop. The shop door is 4" thick with R-18 foam in the door but the garage only has a steel double garage door that I will add 2"- 3" of foam to once it gets installed - waiting on that now.

If you can't insulate then a wood stove is going to be the best way to heat it. For cooling you can use a window unit on the North or East side.

I have too much crap stored on top the rafters to ever be able to sheet rock the ceiling lol.

My stuff is scattered between storage, my shop and my bedroom. I need to hurry and get the garage door on (waiting for its arrival) so I can move the stuff out of my shop that belongs in the garage. Then I can finish my shop, put the cabinets up and put my reloading stuff away.
Then I can spend some well earned time at my press.

It really doesn't matter how much space you have. My loading/gun room has 15 feet of bench down one wall and 10 feet down the opposite side. I still run out of room!

Mine currently in boxes, to use I have to unbox and setup in the workshop.
Gone was the day I have a nice room for man cave.

I've been relegated back to the garage.
To hot and humid to reload in summer

Weather is cooling down so time to start reloading
