What do you guys do when you End up with a lot of assorted stuff that you'll never use in the reloading room.
I've got a couple of lee pro 1000's with all the parts mixed to gather. They booth work, but are missing the case tubes for one and the dispenser chain for the other.
I've got a few bullet moulds and lots of wheel weights, 20 sets of dies I don't have guns for and a couple banana boxes of brass for guns I don't have as well.
As well, because of the demands of raising a family and working on the patch in Alberta, I probably won't have the time to load much. And worse, I've kinda lost interest. 5-10 years ago, I worked on service rigs and had a fluid schedule. Basically, we'd work until we couldn't get services out to finish a job and take a day or two off. Generally, spring was slower and I'd get a couple weeks off. At the time, the shooting sports were a good fit, grab a range bag and your range keys after work, and go shooting. M
Now, I haul fluid. The trucks work 15 hours a day and there is no time for anything not essential. Eventually that'll change, but I find myself a lot more likely to grab my guitar and a cup of coffee, where I'm still around my kids vs going to the range. I'm hoping to have more time at some point, but am dubious as to whether that is possible or not in the oilfield. It doesn't seem to matter if you need the money, if you want to work, you have to be availible a lot.
I've gotten rid of a lot of stuff already, but am not into trying to sell another hundred items on the EE, since I haven't got the time. Any suggestions?
