And a load of cobwebs.A man with a plan.....
Well, mine has to much clutter, started cleaning up and "found" loaded rounds I've been searching for and other nice thingamabobs. EDIT: and a few whatyamacallits.Looks good!! Then, if you're like me, the challenge will be to not let the work area get too cluttered.
Clutter kills. Time is actually saved by keeping clutter at a min at any location in the mancave. Very difficult to do when a lot is going on but I've found if I put things back in its place every time I use it I win.Well, mine has to much clutter, started cleaning up and "found" loaded rounds I've been searching for and other nice thingamabobs.

Just make sure it is levelJust recently caught this work bench on sale at H F. Better quality than what I thought it would be and really helped to clear lots of tools out of my actual gun stuff. I added the second shelf in the middle and the strip across the back for hooks. Debating anchoring it to the floor but so far it has not moved with working in and around it.
I have in mind buying one of those once my hallway outside the safe room is finished off. I think it will serve as an excellent cleaning table.Just recently caught this work bench on sale at H F.

I have one very similar if not identical. I covered the top with a piece of 3/4" plywood and painted the plywood white. It's been my primary loading bench for 8 years now. No complaints given what it is.Just recently caught this work bench on sale at H F. Better quality than what I thought it would be and really helped to clear lots of tools out of my actual gun stuff.

I never understood why people don't leave at least 6" of extra wire when installing outlets. I'd call that minimum. 8"-10" is much better.Well crap. Broke an outlet and now a nightmare. I am a retired lectrician, and this is my worst fear. PO of house wired the basement and when installing the outlets he put the wire em and then pulled the outlet into the box using the romex. Now I can barely get the broke outlet out of the box. Guess I am going to have to turn the power off and splice some pigtails on.
Code says at least 6" past the front of the box. Guess they were savin wire.I never understood why people don't leave at least 6" of extra wire when installing outlets. I'd call that minimum. 8"-10" is much better.
As if cutting the wire short is gonna save substantial money? Ignorance.
Yes Sir certainly did.Just make sure it is level
Since 1970 my reloading area consisted of a large old school teachers desk, a chair and a storage rack. Getting to old to get around hunting.Didn't want to Hi-jack the other load room thread, so here's where I was and where I am. Need to find a couple of young bucks to haul my countertop down in the basement/Batcave. Other mods coming are two more cabinets and a long shelf.
