    Default Flippin cold!

    As I sit in my garage looking at the thermometer reading -8 trying to reload I realized something, I hate this place I miss the desert so much its not funny, and I may have to go back soon whether the wife gos or not. On my single stage press with crappy set up it took me about an hour to do 250rds. I need to either get a small portable bench for inside or quit reloading!

    No way in hell i would reload in the garage. Sounds like you need a "man room".

    I originally had my reloading gear in the garage. Needless to say, I relocated all of it to the basement, much warmer!!!!

    put on the pants and take over some space in your home. think big. haul your loading table into the living room and tell her you are reloading here from now on. once that fights subdues tell her you will meet in the middle and take over a less used room or down in the basement.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    My reload bench is in the garage, and I'm not going out there, even with heat. I spend all my money on propane trying to keep it 50 degrees out there on a day like today. I feel your pain being stuck in the garage.

    I'd setup in the house, but too many people mess with the reloading stuff and I want to be alone in the garage, no distractions there.

    Ya if we can get the house deal done this spring I will have a 1300 sq ft unfinished basement that will be mine all mine. For now we have a 2 bed with the 2 kids sharing a room. I am gonna be moving it to the bedroom when I figure out a mobile press holder, currently it is on a 6' by 3 1/2' foot big ass heavy old wood desk. I am thinking a 3 drawer filing cabinet with a larger wood top?

    When I read this, I remember sweating at 1am when the air conditioning was busted, nearly suffering heat stroke just mowing the $#*$#@( lawn...

    no thanks, I'll deal with the cold instead!
    it's been a pretty mild winter, if this is as cold as it gets, It's no big deal...

    and yes, my limited reloading setup is in the garage...
    ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ, we are the III%, CIP2, and some other catchphrase meant to aggravate progreSSives who are hell bent on taking rights away...
