New 20'x24' reloading area

[BoltActionSean]

Hey All, I just moved into a house with an extra room to spare. I attached the layout for reference. Can you guys please give me some ideas on how to layout this space for my reloading/gunroom/mancave/? I have all the normal/necessary reloading equipment, including the APEX10, MEC Marksman Single-Stage, HEAVY PRÄZIPRESS 165MM, scale, vises, etc, etc, etc. I would certainly consider quick-change plates for each press and other small items, so as to remove and store away after use. Also will sure build a sturdy bombproof bench/table to mount the press at the time of use. Thanks in advance.

I’d set a big screen up on one side and then a bench island/coffee table in the middle of the room. Get a couch or some comfy chairs you can sit up on and then make that island an accommodating height. Wing nuts make every press relatively quick detach. Cabinets somewhere to set everything on and in. Surround sound too.

Start with the basics:

The Red is “you” enjoying your man cave!!

The Blue is “your wife” making you a sammich!!!!

If you want to maximize space, build an octagonal table/bench to load on. Make it as big as you want, but it will still maximize space and works great moving from station to station. My next reloading table will be octagonal. You can then utilize your extra space for a bar with whiskey shelf, kegerator, card table, cigar humidor, movie theater seating, and a stripper pole.

Figured I'd move this thread over, in light of all the folks who posted such great stuff back on the old 'Hide. I captured a lot of it and will incorporate into the new room(s). Another snowy weekend spent in the barn attic saw the completion of all my framing and the installation of all...

I like that octagonal table idea. Much appreciated. keep the ideas flowing.
