Cleaned the reloading room today.

[fiver]

I been slowly working over the shop.
I have to do it slowly and move only one thing at a time so I can absorb where it's new location is.
it's still a mess but the mess is just from the stuff I haven't found a place for yet, and the corners get vacuumed.

 

[Brad]

Dammit Walter, now you dunnit.

I went and spent 100 bucks on a bunch of new ammo boxes and plastic bins for bullets and brass. The wife and I are going to spend some quality time together cleaning things up.

If I can't find something next week I know who is to blame. Posting videos like that to shame us.

 

[waco]

Well I wanna see before and after pics at least!

 

[Brad]

This isn't before but it is in the early stages. By this time I had removed 60 plus pounds of bullets for remelting. That bucket is now over flowing, all 5 gallons of it. Probably pushing 325 pounds by now.

 

[waco]

Just a hint of clutter.....

Many years ago I was always re-melting boxes of bullets. What a waste of time cast'em just to toss'em back in the pot, ever since I cast what I need. Still have a few left over's but handful's, not by the bucket.

 

[Brad]

A hint?
Dude, that is a full on s... storm.
Many of the bins on the counter are now empty. They contained bullets I will be melting down.
Bulk brass will go into bins under the knee hole. Some bulk bullets will go there too before sizing and lubing.
I got 300 rounds of 44 special into ammo boxes. I need to get a bunch of
9mm into boxes too.
What gets me in trouble is not keeping up with cleaning fired handgun brass. I end up with bins and boxes of it all over. Then they get mixed in with various bullets for tests that sometimes go poorly so the remainder of the bullets just sit unused.

What you can't see on the top shelf by the safe is the pile of bags filled with lube tests. Probably 20 or more of them.

I was a nice feeling getting everything condensed and consolidated. I use a lot of coffee cans to store stuff. I ended up with 30+ empty cans when I was done. Not to mention tons of small boxes.

Based on how clean & organised Brad's before pic is i will delcine to map the 3.5 way trail through mine. Oddly enough it's the same color as his, picked by my niece when it was her bed room. I was planning to paint it camo if I ever finish refinishing it. I'm just happy the whole floor is concrete again.

Here are a couple of 1 of ours

fiver said: I haven't played that cassette in years.

I can say I have seen the Cars live. Long ago when we were dating.

You and fiver were dating? Who knew . . .


Cat

 

[waco]

Catshooter! Good to see you here. If my memory servers we did business on a mold way back when. 8-9 years ago maybe???
Good to see you here regardless!

 

[fiver]

hmm PM's do work...
good to see ya Cat.

good lord when did I post those?
I need to have a talk with my camera operator, I just bought her new glasses....now I'm wondering if this is why she thinks I'm good looking.

 

[Brad]

My room is still in need of organization but I got things going the right direction.
Open bins of bullets are out, I got some nice little containers for them.
I bet Waco doesn't have classy labels like these.

 

[gman]

I like that Brad!

 

[waco]

Nope. No fancy labels here. I use a lot of index cards.

[waco]

I like the bins Brad. Seal up, stackable. They look very useful and space saving.

 

[Ian]

Are those bottom ones silver bullets?

 

[Brad]

Nope, Tom assures me they are pure Au in a 375 Win.
I haven't fired many but the ones I did shoot did quite well.
