Here's a picture of my hand loading set up in Scotland. I have tumbler, trimmer, priming tools, load manuals and sundry bits and pieces so all I need to take up is boolits/bullets, powder, primers and sometimes dies and cases depending on the calibre. It all packs away nicely into a couple of MTM boxes that then are locked away in the gun cabinets.

Think that I had better have a tidy up.... makes mine look like a bomb-site!

I see you use an old school desk! I bought one for a fiver and its just the job. I do wish I hadn't got rid of my Wamadet though.

That is the beauty of a temporary set up you have to clean it away regularly so the clutter goes too. Now if you were to see my gun room in Durham..................... :shock:

Too many projects I'm afraid.

I do like the Wamadets, they had a unique approach. Their lubing and priming systems were like nothing else.

I'm going to get my three set up to show the different approaches and do a post on it at some point, another project to the list.

I tidied mine yesterday as I have a fair amount of loading to do over the next few days.

Good God! Are you using the Wamadet to size and seat bullets??????
I have one that I used about 20 years ago and still have it but it was so wobbly my bullet runout was well over 0.010 so upgraded to a Harrell press.
Will not get rid of the Wamadet as am waiting for the Antiques Roadshow to come up to t'north and see if they tell me it is a family heirloom and worth thousands!!!!!

I still have the lubing bits for my old Wamadet; found them the other day. Bit rusty and gungy but still sound. Free to a good home (P&P excluded).

I use the Wamadet for boolit/bullet seating up in Scotland and with good seating dies it gives as good run out as my Co-ax, Ultramag, Rockchuker and Holywood do. Sounds as though your Wamadet is misaligned or you are using dodgy dies.

Yes I do use the Slube unit as well as my Lyman (3), RCBS(3), Meepos, Star, SAECO and Vickers lubrisizers. I like to use different tools at different times as I enjoy using fine workmanship. As I said previously the Wamadet approach is totaly different and once you have the hang of it its as quick as any of the others except for the Star and the Meepos which are straight through designs
