Thanks guys, I do love my garage, lucky to have it.
AM, funny you mention the pivot detent pin, I lost one just last month. That little sucker took off, even with the orange floor never did find it.
And Montana, yes it's a small milling/drilling machine nothing fancy but it's great for drilling&tapping and some light milling jobs.Last edited by 65Whelen; 01-11-2015, 03:43 AM.

Spectra- whatever works is fine. Thanks for sharing- I'm in similar spot until I get indoors. I have same wood top for a bench. I have same white cabs also up above. Menards units- homer D.
Now 65 Wh. - he has a nice nice setup. I had coldies with this guy 2 yrs. ago- I'll have to get together again with him , & draw a plan up for me - using his thots mainly.
He has HEAT. I have the 3 seasons- no heat. Last house had a garage heater from the sun.
My wife trys to keep me on a budget++== Put more into your 401K !!
Nice setup 65Wh. This is good info for us all to improvise with what you have, then plan for the next build.
Spectra- help the wife out more, maybe she'll let you in the house! Good fun here.

Well boys and girls, I thought I'd bring you back down to earth with the re-loading room on an Oompa Loompa submarine...
At least you don't have to get up from the seat, just swivel around and everything is at arms reach.
The work-horse with the two presses has folding legs as I do a fair bit of re-loading at the range. I leave the progressive on the left hand side at home when that happens and use a lithium battery pack for the Chargemaster.
Now, back to drooling over your Charlton Heston man-caves.

Here you can see the layout of my complete room, basically just room to stand and work. Everything has a "planned" placement to be at a sensible spot for the workflow.
The powder dispenser is put on a metal shelf (non flammable) and I drilled a drainhole so I could easily brush away spilled powder.
Since I have kids soon in the "more-curiousity-than-brains" age segment, I added this barriere

Roe,
That entry lock handle is super! My mother tried to instill the idea in me that it is impolite to ask someone how much something costs but I gotta know what brand that is and the price range. She tried to talk me out of joining the Marines too. Mothers aren't ALWAYS right....just mostly. Really good use of space.

It is called TrioVing Codehandle door 8810 and it was around USD 300. I am sure there is many variations to this product type.
It is really easy to use, but this version is indoor access control only - no anti-burglar. Without the code the handle simply doesn't engage the door.
Yale doorman and similar is more secure, but at least here, the price pops up to USD 500'ish.
Edit: I see it is marketed under Lockwood name elsewhere
Or you can get the very same lock under Assa Abloy name for 1/2 price here http://www.duelsecurityandhardware.c...02-code-handle
Hmmm, and with that google-fu lead I see that Home Depot have electronic lock solutions down towards $70 that will do the same job...
Damned impulse shopping!!!Last edited by Roe; 01-15-2015, 08:48 AM.

Roe,
Thanks for the reply and the excellant leads/links.
I feel your pain! There are a few things I have learned that apply to life and my many hobbies.
1. Some of the rules apply some of the time.
2. A lot of the rules apply most of the time.
3. Your worst mistakes ALWAYS happen in front of at least one of your friends.
4. None of the rules apply all of the time except this one.....you will always find it cheaper after you have bought it.
5. Murphy is an optimist!
