Construction Begins - Reloading Room!

[IntenseImage]

For a few months now, I have been reloading in our basement but have always wanted to dedicate a space for it. Today the build for that space started!

Figuring out the layout:




Framing:





Starting to look like a room!:

Outlets on the exterior for the next phase of finishing the basement after New Years







I will post more as the build progresses

Cool.
I'd need a dumpster or two to make room in my basement for something like that.

Between my basement and my "3 car" dilapidated shed....same here.

Nice room you got there. May I suggest if you are going to use fluorescent lighting that you buy bulbs that say daylight or sunlight something over 5000k it will be much brighter and easier on the eyes.

Looks good, intending to include some sort of exhaust fan to get rid of solvent fumes?

Nope, I dont clean guns in that area.

Day 2 --- and the end of construction!












Tomorrow I will build the second bench (matching the existing) that will house a Dillon Super1050 and then the safe gets installed under the stairs (leaving room after the 2nd bench for another matching safe later)

The room is coming out great. Is that the permanent location for the florescent light fixture? I would have one fixture directly overhead of the bench parallel to it. The way it is now you might create a shadow on your work area.

Oddly enough, this way ended up producing little to no shadow over the bench.
