Yes I am. There's an in-line (6") high velocity exhaust fan/system that ducts the air directly outside above the lead pots.
FWIW - I have been casting my own bullets in similar spaces to supply my competitive BP shooting without an exhaust system for the last 35 years. Since 2005 I have had a lead test as part of my yearly blood work. Nada YMMV |

I have that Lowes bench, it pretty nice. I put an rcbs base plate on left end and a vise on right end and use it for single stage press and trimmer. Gunvise on bench top and smithing tools on the peg board. I added a hasp and pad lock to the top for primer storage.
Biggest thing is the bench top. Its shitty particle board that flexes with a little torque from resizing cases. I fixed it with to 2x12" boards held together with 2x4s underneath. Trim the corners to fit and g2g. Get some white wall panel board for a white workspace top so you can see what you're doing. The built in light and power strip are very nice. Oh and put some rubber drawer liner in the drawers so your stuff doesn't slide everywhere. |

My bench is just about finished still want to add a couple of cabinets or shelves up top and a light of some sort. Also my friend is making me an aluminum skin that will cover the top and back-splash with one piece so clean ups will be a breeze and I wont dent the wood or stain it with Hoppes #9 when I clean the toys. Still haven't decided if I'm going to put a wood stain or clear coat on it.
getting started 
the top 3 2x12s 6ft long 
Legs are 4x4s with 2x4 bracing 
sheet of plywood on the lower shelf 
My Nephew sanding...it's amazing the labor you can get for a 12er of PBR

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Taipan01: I'm stepping off into a new venture. I wanted a small workstation to roll around while doing the small stuff like depriming maybe some pistol reloading then I said what the hell, go for broke. With so many people asking about small time reloading, apartments, storage, tumbling and so on I thought why not build one to serve everything that I just wrote. I think I can do it all with the size of about a foot print of 2 ft square X 31 high or there about's. I don't use plans, I just dream as I go along. I mean all of it including storage but in small amounts. I started it but as I'm on six days a week it'll be slow going. I'll make a full write up but it'll be a few months, sorry, kids and all before ARF.com. Here where she is at the moment (as of today). About 75 % of the frame is done. http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn82/Taipan01/new%20mini/75oftheframe_zps770a36c8.jpg Great 2222 post.  That bench is a beauty. Even finished the inside that won't be seen. You didn't mention what you are going to go with for a top. Some sort of beautiful wood? |

That bench is a beauty. Even finished the inside that won't be seen. You didn't mention what you are going to go with for a top. Some sort of beautiful wood? Hi Dryflash, I always finish the insides, its in the details and all that. I haven't decided on the top yet (or a new Si vis expression I always raise letter on my stuff). That will be the last part of it as I need it open for now to work on the interior. If you look close at the uprights, you'll see they have been dadoed. That will be for the sides back walls which I also intend to build doors for and shelving. The picture is the minis, or super minis front. The top section, forward part, I want to build a spillway for dry tumbling media and also a spent primer drop tube. Thats where a removable press will sit. I'm sure I can also use the cavity for other mounts say for knife sharping and so on. The rest of the top section will be more storage and I'll hinge the top for access. What remains of the interior between the uprights will be for a nano tumbler and the media, accessible from the back. I'll also build a removable extension as in my main desk, that will sit at a comfortable angle (between 45 and 22 degrees, need to wait to decide) for more space if needed. I still need to finish the frames bottom outriggers. The outriggers will be 2X6's under the frame perpendicular to the front. They will keep it from tipping and give me a place for the castors and a drop down shelf for a catch bucket from the spill way. That's what I have floating around my head for now. I'm never quite sure as I don't write it down or use plans. I have been snapping images this time as I go along. I'm trying to use the most simplest of tools and or supply an alternative way to do things as in the dado so that those interested can build it or something similar at a friends house if necessary. The power tools can be just a drill, circular saw, maybe a saber saw. Anyway, thats what I got. As I said, my time is very limited now so I hope no one is holding their breath waiting for the final. Hopefully in a few months. Peace. T. |

Just finished my bench, well almost finished. I still need to attach the peg board, some plywood on the lower shelf and lag bolts (3.5" deck screws for now). Dimensions are 7'Lx36"Dx44"H, I am 6'8" so it is built to my specs...lol. I'm debating on some type of top for ease of cleanup, the 2x6's will get pretty dirty if left alone. I noticed some 3/16" hardboard at Home Depot, may just buy a sheet of that. Hardboard

Thanks! I think my favorite feature is the T track, what a fantastic idea whoever the first to think of it was. I had my concerns about rigidity before i installed it but that stuff is solid. I also stood on the bench while I was installing the top shelves. No give or flex whatsoever. Didn't even creak. Quite pleased with it.

Still a work in progress as far as putting things away. Maybe some more shelves in the future. <a href="http://s1072.photobucket.com/user/vpiocona/media/Reload%20Bench/20140208_135337.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/w364/vpiocona/Reload%20Bench/20140208_135337.jpg</a> Lets see if anyone can tell me what top I went with.

The old decrepit POS http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h282/gocaptainawesome/20140228_173741.jpg And the new built like a tank. http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h282/gocaptainawesome/20140228_204859.jpg now to tackle the mess! is that first pic an optical illusion or is that table bowed real bad? nice work on the new bench Yeah it's bowed. No optical illusion there. It actually looked worse in real life. |

Updated picture of my setup. Now 12 calibers and over 180,000rds produced on a 6'x2' bench. Being organized and keeping your bench clean is the key with limited space.
 The wall on the left above holds my military types. The 2 horizontal rifles are retired while the vertically mounted ones are used. BTW, my basement is secured so I feel comfortable displaying my firearms in the open.  |

Wow! Looks like a lot of weight on both the desk and TV Cabinet from the bow in both. Or is the desk just bowed from from all of the work done on it?
