Reloading room/gun room ideas

[trlcavscout]

So I am reclaiming a 9' X 12' basement room with great lighting, electric floor board heater (only one in house), and a window. The basement flooded last summer and this room took a hit, it was storage.

I am looking for ideas for a cheap built in gun cabinet, cheap and easy to build. Security is not a big concern and my kids know better. The room will be locked so a light lock would be plenty.

Reloading bench and shelves. I don't care for my old bench and would like to improve it with a cheap easy setup.

I did have a cable guy run cable in it today so TV is covered

How much to rent it out?

We when first bought the house my nephew lived with us before he went to college, it was a great bedroom haha.

Well I put my reloading set up in it for now till I get something better. I still need to paint and figure out what I am gonna do for flooring since the carpet got flooded. It will never have carpet again, what a mess!

Nice setup. Nothing like a good man cave. I always wanted a big poster of one of those giant worms from Tremors looking like its busting through the wall. "grab the elephant gun!"

Just paint the floor and call it a day. Easier for cleanup and no issues with static discharge. Looks like you have a decent amount of space to work with.

If you can score a few kitchen base cabinets, they make good foundations for a bench.
Increase the lighting, forget carpet. I have 10x3 anti-static rubber backed carpet sections, i use. You can too
2-3 more 4-8' florescent fixtures and you'll be well lit. For any lighting over the bench area, i suggest you put these over the tubes.

Powder and primers separate areas, enclosed in 1" thick wood cabinets, non-locking doors. FIRE EXTINGUISHER at least 2 hefty ones. Those small kidde units last 10 sec, if that.

I was using an unfinished basement room that's like 20'x20', had my weights, reloading, work benches, lathe etc. Buy that's gonna be the storage room with hidden area. So I am down sizing but this room is warmer and has better lighting. Plus I can sleep there when the wife pisses me off haha

I will be replacing the fluorescent lights with LED this spring.
