Oh the bench...the MESSY bench

[300WSM]

In the words of the great Colonel Walter E. Kurtz from apocalypse now...

The horror.

The horror.

That was my thought looking at my bench tonight.

Time to get those benches cleaned and tidied up my fellow posters.

Shooting weather is here.

Stay safe and happy loading/shooting.

I agree, my bench is a mess. Been remodelling the Man Cave and have stuff everywhere. Getting warm enough here I can spend time reloading again.

I'm in the same boat, my garage and mancave out in the back is a mess as well. Hot weather is coming, and I better get to it real soon.

The back room (aka mancave) of our 2 BR rental unit is always full, and often a mess as we have so much stuff and so little space. (It has become more of a Catchall than a mancave). Happens when 2, 40, something adults get married! Not to mention what we have accumulated over the past 15 years. We even use the holiday trailer as our guestroom. Needless to say we don't have may overnight guests in the deep winter!
I do cleanup every now and then, so I can find stuff, or access the filing cabinet, but always have access to the workbench, safe, hunting pack, and shooting range equipment.

I have put in for an addition, and am still waiting for a decision. The 12 x 30 addition will become the new mancave, and the backroom would become an actual guestroom! (Will need soon as the daughter is getting married this fall, and they are planning on kids after that.)
The new mancave will have a well organized desk, reloading bench, rifle and bow work bench, and storage for all of the reloading stuff and ammunition! (and hunting, shooting and archery gear)

And I need more space for the critters that we will have home soon from our trip to Africa last year, and then from our trip next year!
(Did manage to get our critters from New Zealand up!)
