Reloading bench height

Cool pics guys of your reloading benches/rooms. We need a thread to post pics of members reloading rooms. :) No pics of mine yet as I would be embarrassed of the disorganization.

My table is made of architectural angle iron (frame) and is 31" high.It is 4' wide and 29" 's deep with 2 lockable castors and 2 that steer.It has a built in shelf to put all my gun powder and the top is 3/8 th's machinist plate aluminum.The top come's off for easy transport. The aluminum is great because of the non-sparking properties .I have 4 presses bolted to it and all my normal needs. I can move it anytime and anywhere. It is sturdy and have a load of bullets on it for weight. I epoxy coated the frame a dark green and left the top au naturale. I tried wood and just didnt like it. I am also in my basement so weight doesnt matter.
 
I am pretty new to the shooting / reloading hobby. Actually, I grew up with guns. I just got back into the hobby just recently. Here are a few views of the bench I just made.

Here is a view of the front, being used as a reloading station.

Here is a rear view, being used as a gun care cleaning station.

Here is a view with the brass drawer out. I must admit, the brass drawer was a last minute idea. I now am wondering whether it is big enough.

I opted to clean my cases using an ultrasonic cleaner. Here is a view with the brass cleaner drawer pulled out.

I made the bench top out of 3/4" MDF. The table height was designed to match the existing garage counter top work space. I see the bench as an extension of the existing garage shop area. As you can see, on the front; I attached those RCBS base plates. On the right hand side, I can attach either the powder throw or the case trimmer. The system works OK for a limited space situation.
