    Default Dream reloading room

    What would the perfect reloading room be equipped with? Anything from bench design to special lighting to electrical needs, etc...

    Kazoo's old shop in Windsor.

    In my dreams, I think about having an ATF room.

    A long work bench along one side with the following:
    - Dillion 1050 set up for .223
    - Dillon 1050 set up for 9mm
    - Dillion 1050 set up for a large primer-based rifle cartridge of some sort
    - Dillon 650 or 550 that gets ocassional use for loading stuff I don't shoot much of, oddball calibers and the like.
    - LED lighting
    - Cabinets for storing components

    Along another wall would be one of those slick modular wall systems that lets you mount and display your firearms.

    Along another wall would be a finished wetbar stocked with a mini fridge, ice, and a small humidor.
    The bar would be stocked with a reasonable menagerie of medium-shelf liquor. The minifridge would have some beers, and there'd be one of those wine things that snooty people buy at Costco.
    Then on the walls there'd be cool art. Like a picture of Gman posing on a Tesla or something.

    Other stuff to include:
    A premium sound system for listening to music while running a press.
    A laptop on one of those cool swing arm mounts for looking up load data.
    A vice.
    Tools for working on guns.

    The door is a vault-style door and the whole thing is hidden behind a book case stocked with books by Andrea Dworkin.

    If there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to buy a gun, there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to vote.

    For legal reasons, that's a joke.

    I just dream about having an empty shop that I can make my own with room for reloading, car stuff, and wood stuff

    Also, would like to include a way to keep track of brass for processing. So, a way to differentiate between dirty brass, polished brass, and brass that's been trimmed and had the primer pocket swaged.

    Also a Giraud case trimmer is a must.

    I wonder if you could repurpose the acrylic bins like you see in hell food stores for bulk grain... set it up to look like a Wonka candy shop.
