Damn, I could move my entire shop into that space. Congrat's - let us see the finished product.

Riverpigusmc 03-29-2013 09:49 PM

Told ya, now we're shed kin :D

Look at the foil popcorn insulation at Home Depot, Colonel. Made by Reflectix..I looked at the wrapper and realized I wired that factory when I was a contractor in Indiana. 24" wide and staples in easy. Lowes has a small window A/C for 109 bucks..just make sure your window opens 13"...I had to take out the whole window and frame the A/C in. Gonna get hot in "Bama like it does here.

Riverpigusmc 04-09-2013 06:01 PM

Good job, Ed. You even clocked the screws on the receptacle plates...I used to ream my guys butts for leaving them every which way..makes the job look unfinished. Nice fixtures, too

Roverron 04-09-2013 06:40 PM

Hummmm, looking good Mike!

That's a great looking shop, I wish mine looked half as nice! Good luck with all your reloading.:)

Riverpigusmc 04-15-2013 05:37 PM

Ya ever notice how an officer/pilots area is clean and refined, and a grunt/NCO just has all his crap stuffed in a seabag? So goes the reloading caves. Looking good, Colonel

ColMike 04-15-2013 05:52 PM

Thanks Mike

First, I think the desk is a sewing cabinet. See sequence below

http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps246b45ec.jpg

http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps9b83f46b.jpg

I use a hand primer rather than the one in the press.

http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps31558ef4.jpg

I tried the tumbler on the bench but it caused too much vibration. Now it's on the floor with the A/C unit.

http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/t...pse2c642e3.jpg

I'm waiting on my Pact powder measure and scale so I got this little Hornacy scale. who would have thought it would take 4 weeks to ship?

http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/t...psa2331c92.jpg

Bins for clean fired brass. I'll have to put in shelves soon enough to handle the case load.

http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps7fae5101.jpg


And the end of it all.. the first 20 ournds complete;

http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps3a3feb09.jpg

And a special thanks to you Padre for all the help you gave me when first we spoke on this subject. I referred many times to the pics you uploaded.

Mike
