Gun Room.
I have a pretty large gun/reloading room. I just hate having to take down all my reloaders, to work on a gun. Got thinking today and decided to build an Island for cleaning and repairing guns. Buying a kitchen base cabinet, 60x24x34 1/2 and a counter top. I want it to be stable, so I didn't want anything on wheels. I figure the cabinets would match the other cabinets I have down there. I can also take everything apart when we move. My bench now, is 8 feet long , but just over crowded to work on all the time. What have you guys got set up?? The room has two ammo closets, on each side of this safe, but I don't have it in the pictures. I have three more safes like this one, in the other room. Room is about 16x 12, so perfect for a little island.

I don’t reload and my little setup is very simple but it works for me

@Oakie I thought you were getting ready to move ?

I love your set-up, especially the section with the safe built-in. About three more years until I can stop with all the moving around, and then I hope to put together a proper room.

Same safe we have.
Yeah, that's not going anywhere. (bolted down too?)
Like seeing the Fire Extinguisher too

I put that in the post. I can remove everything when I move in a couple years. Until then, I want a place to clean my guns. I will build a room to except all these cabinets and tops when we move. I still have about 2 to 4 years left here. Just waiting on her to decide where and when.

Hopefully, when you move down South, it will be close enough we can visit.
I count you among my Friends. (As well as Chris Streett.)

Thanks, I built that a few years ago.. I have added a little more lighting in the room. I ran electric into the safe for a golden rod and some LED lighting on a motion sensor

Currently I have a homemade bench about 6 feet long. It has a shelf below it to hold all my cleaning equipment and supplies. Plenty of space. I put an old yoga mat on top of the bench to keep things from sliding around and to give a softer space to work on. When it gets dirty, I give it a 2 hour soak in some hot water & OxyClean, rinse, hang outside to dry, and done.

What is this "Cleaning," y'all keep talkin' about. 🤔
Once a year or so, I fire up the cordless drill with a bronze brush soaked in Kroil. Run it up and down the bore until it smokes. Easy Peesie. 👍😁😉😂
Just kidding. (From a post/threads from a while back.) We had fun with it for awhile.

For cleaning my shop, I just dig out my old 120V leaf blower and open up a couple doors. 😁

I am assuming, (yeah, I know 🙄) that the above U-tube link, is showing Bill Murray doing the same (with a leafblower) on "CaddyShack."
While taking hits of ganja and big slugs of wine.
That is immediately what I thought of, when you said that @Brookwood. 👍😁

started using the blower to clean off the mower after mowing, blow all the grass off the deck and off the pushmower when done, then even blew out the outbuilding of spider webs and old grass, leaves.......
