I've been reloading since I was 16. Started on my dad's rotary press, then saved up and bought a Dillon 550B. I built a travel bench around that press (you can see it in the photos), that folds up on itself for transport. I've used this setup for 18 years.
I've recently bought a Hornady LNL AP, so I had to make another bench for it, found one at Sams and installed aluminum T-slot rails in the top. I installed some new cabinets over my reloading bench today, also installed small can lights under the cabinets. Still have to do a lot of reorganizing and filling that pegboard up. I cast for everything I shoot except .224" stuff, so I have a large assortment of molds and assorted other parts. Trying to get everything more organized. 
A few of my reloads. These are my range loads. I have about 10 large ammo boxes filled with other calibers that I don't shoot as often. 
About 40 lbs. of powder in the bottom drawer. I have more in storage, as well as a few  primers.
Sorry for the mess, like I said, I am reorganizing.

Quoted: Nice set up.  Except you need to clean up where the dust mask's, and Eastwing hammer is.  Yep, when you have a small area to work in it's almost mandatory that you keep things cleaned up. Even though my 'bench' is only 6' x 2', I've run north of 170,000rds of handloads on it and everything works just great.  |

What brand of press is that turret on the left? The one with the Lee Bulge Buster on top? (BTW your IM account shows that your inbox is FULL) It's a Lyman Turret Press. I think it was made in the mid to late '60's. Thanks for the heads up, I cleared out the inbox. |

Except you need to clean up where the dust mask's, and Eastwing hammer is. Yeah, I have more organizing to do. That is a big stack of hardwood flooring. Besides sorting out my loading room, I am installing hardwood floors and finishing out an unbuilt basement. So, there is a lot of tools/parts stacked everywhere. |

Organization has always been something I've struggled with. I have a large shop with a large amount of tools, but it seems I'm always spending more time looking for the right tool than it takes to do the actual project  Something I definitely need to work on.

I hear ya about looking for tool's. There's been so many time's I know I have the right tool, but sure can't find it. Then I have to go buy one, just to find the original latter.
