I have a large industrial sink.

I don't drink coffee, but I have double bergamot earl gray tea each morning.

I don't drink beer. (or any alcohol)

I have in-floor heat in the concrete floor, and a central heating/cooling system with both propane gas and electric backup forced air heat. 1000 gallons of propane, with ability to add another 1000 gallons easily. 20kw propane fired whole-home auto-switch backup generator. I think I'm OK on the heat side of things. Besides, there's no trees to chop around here to put into a wood stove anyway. I suppose I could do it like the settlers and burn cow pies. Might have a negative effect on the smell in here though. I kind of like the raw pine walls and the associated smell I have going on right now.

Man, I'd be in woodstove withdrawal in no time at all wherever you're at.

Very, very impressive. You obviously have an extreme talent for design and execution!

Makes my open shelves look positively shabby!

Thanks to all who replied.

While I appreciate the compliments, I make it a point to be very honest about myself and my capabilities... and I'd rate my wood working ability as amateur at best.

My real talents are in the precision rifle realm. I produce content and instruct shooters, and I'm a firm believer that your environment is an important part of success. As a result I want my work area to look nice and function well, maximizing my ability to pursue my shooting projects.

Can't post picks so I will just tell you about mine. Several years ago I came across some used bowling lanes. I bought a section that was about 11.5' long and that is the top of my bench. I actually only use one half of it for reloading, the other half if my workbench.

Do you know how heavy bowling lanes are? That 11.5' section took four grown men (young men) to lift it off the ground onto my trailer to even get it home. I trimmed out the edges of the bench with oak.

I built the base out of 4x4's for the legs (6 of them) and 2x6's and 2x8's for the frame. Once I got the frame built four of us lifted it onto the frame and attached it. I put bed levelers in the bottom of the 4x4's to level it out and I can tell you it is the most solid bench I have ever used that is not anchored into the wall. Mine is not anchored and does not need to be.

I have all of my powder, bullets, primers, dies and related supplies around the bench in wall cabinets that I can lock.

If you ever have a chance to pick up a section of bowling lane, do it. Even if you don't have a need for it at that time, they don't come around every day and make the best reloading work benches I have seen. And, if you get the section of lane closest to where you drop your bowling ball, that is all hardwood.

Orkan:

The first picture looked like a mighty small room.
Then adding the benches around and such seemed
to enlarge it.

Nice looking wood work.

One question: Where is this located? You don't list where you are.

Thanks for sharing, very nice. Though not near enough gun slots!

I'm in south dakota.

Regarding gun slots, my new room has significantly more... and they are heavily protected from fire and thievery this time.
