Last time I checked, dining rooms were for dining, living rooms were for sitting around doin' nothin' in particular!

Looking forward to seeing it.
I had this set up about 4 years ago. Desperate times arose (separation) and I sold off my Dillon XL650 
Prior to the Dillon I had the Hornady complete Lock-N-Load Ammo Plant, imo the Dillon XL650 was quite superior!
I still have my old slower but faithful Lee Classic 4 Turret press by my side

I have been building my reloading bench (pics to follow soon), but just wanted to say...having OCD sucks. A simple work bench in the basement for a reloading workstation has turned into a fine furniture project.....lol. Stain is done, now applying the clear coat over the bench....
Finally got the clear coat on the bench and finished it off. I think it will work for a reloading bench.
Made from 3/4 plywood (with one side smooth finish), cut into 2x4 pieces and glued / screwed together. 3" thick total. I don't think it is going to flex when reloading.....
Building some shelves for bins etc on the back wall now.....then I just need to mount the press when it arrives.

We don't have a basement so it is in the spare room. When We get our house I might just take over the whole basement as my room now is packed.
Sounds like a good deal to me.

My setup is in a small corner of the basement. This little space produces a lot of ammo though. My wife likes guns and reloading as much as I do, so we usually reload together.
May have gotten a little carried away with the photos.
You can never have too many bullets. (same goes for the guns)
......or dies, and more bullets, and of course brass - stored in another cupboard.

Forgot this is beside my reloading setup - handy to have the collection close by for reference for some of the oddball stuff. And just to look at!

It's a great start and if it works for you, that's all that matters. I see that passersby won't bash their arm on that recessed press - good idea!
