    In the garage. I got tired of the heat; it is now a/c with two high efficiency units. In the winter, I don't need heat. I keep the powder and primers in my gun room until it is time to reload.

    Thank goodness for being a bachelor, I get to reload right in my bedroom on an old dining room table setup next to my computer desk, pretty nice as I can lookup stuff on youtube if I need to troubleshoot (not really had to since I started cranking out rounds, did alot of it before my dies even came in). Only complaint is my vent points right at the table so I have to close it if I want my lee safety scale to settle out. Other than that its great, I get to sit in my computer chair, its nice and cool and I haven't had hardly any problems with static.

    Anybody reload while standing up? This bending over crap is killing my back and its kinda hard to seat large rifle primers. I was planning on moving off my desk to a set of cabinets and Im thinking of elevating my press a little more on top of that so I can stand while seating primers and charging brass.

    I have my setup on the top of an old medical rolling cabinet, it puts everything just a wee bit higher than a normal desk so I can stand and rest one foot on the wheel bumper guards or sit/perch on a "bar" stool. Nice thing with this setup is it rolls out of the way when not needed and has a ton of storage underneath.

    I load standing up. My press is almost 4' high. Measure to see what works best for you. I have a foam mat on the floor for comfort. I like my setup, except for the heat (garage loader).

    Since I still haven't recovered completely from surgery, I sit on a stool similar to the Craftsman in T-Fast's picture. Of course, I sat down before I had the surgery, to keep from dancing around in the process.

    I converted part of my master closet (wife wasn't too thrilled, but she tolerates it) to my reloading room.

    I'm a staunch "sit down" and reload type. I used to stand up, but it kills my back and knees and I don't see any point in it. I figure if I'm going to spend the time reloading, I'm going to be comfortable doing it so that I can concentrate on the important things.

    I have a four car garage with two cars. Naturally I closed off one garage section, installed an AC, and do my reloading in there.

    I walled in a part of an old shed behind my house and installed an AC.

    My Dillon is mounted high enough that I can stand, or sit on a stool. The RCBS is a sit down press.
