New reloading room, looking for input....

I turned my kitchen into my reloading room... bolted the dillion onto the kitchen counter and bingo bango, done and done... works well since there were plenty of drawers there I never used... is it sad I need one kitchen cuboard for my kitchen stuff, but 8 for my reloading stuff?

If I had a wife she would have killed me, so may not apply to everyone!

great conversation piece when people come over who dont know I shoot...

"You might be a redneck if" LOL
 
Cluttered but comfortable. 1st view from the entrance coming drom my den.

Back to where I am from, was raised, family lives, etc...

Although I miss the mountains and being able to hunt Elk, Mulies, Billies, Cariboo and Stone Sheep at will :(
 
I got to see this! lol Do you have any pics?

haha, yes... crappy cell phone pics, but yeah... open one cupboard and its half chunky soup, half brass...

this is also where I clean/work on my guns, and paint... I never do dishes there... odd

in total the whole space is only a 5'x5' section on the other side of the kitchen island,

That would be a great way to stay single! Most ladies would be out the door quick once the saw that.

here is mine. I put the press, trimmer, powder measure, and vice on the bench via T bolts and T slot track. This helps if you have to clear the bench for another project. The cupboards I got on sale and are bolted to the wall.
 
What do you guys use to keep the reloading area so clean? I need to get something like a DustBuster for cleaning up all the brass trimmings that end up piled around some stations, right now I use a bunch of small brushes but find it hard to clean under some things.
 
The photo was the day I set it up. It has never been that clean again. ( I am not a slob but I do have a high tolerance for chaos) For powder spills around the press I use a paint brush to sweep it into the garbage and we have a small little vacuum called a Shark (I think) that comes in handy.

careful with Dustbuster, dont want to vacuum up powder by mistake, some might ignite it, I just wipe down with cloth, or small brush/broom
