Reloaders have LOTS of STUFF!

[Adam Helmer]

I bought my farm in 1988 and began putting stuff in the barn and various sheds. The woodshed is closest to the house and held my Coleman Stove, fuel, candle wax for fluxing, and everything else I wanted to "keep handy." Well, the old woodshed is falling down and today we took it down to be replaced by a two-car garage with a second story for my stuff.

I needed to empty out the 10 foot X 12 foot building until the garage gets finished. It took me 10 loads in the Polaris Ranger to empty the old shed. I found stuff I gave up for lost 10 years ago. The move allowed me to inventory all the ingots in 3-pound coffee cans of wheelweights, lead, Lino Type and other bullet metals. I thought I was running short of bullet metal. I now wonder how the old woodshed stayed upright Lo these many years..!

The tractor shed is now the location of all my stuff. It is where I cast bullets on the haywagon in Bay #3. I now have all bullet metal, Coleman Stove, wax and related casting stuff in one place. What is not to like?

It is amazing what we accumulate isn't it. I did the same thing quite a few years ago in Md. Found stuff I didn't even remember i had. When I moved to Wyoming...I left 6 tons of lead and 1000s of bullets both cast and jacketed back there. Bringing all that stuff here little by little. It's ok Adam..you'll probably lose some of that stuff again..in the months and years to come. But it is nice to know what you have. If you're like me..you have no trouble hiding stuff from yourself...and then my wife hides my stuff from me too LOL

This sounds like a lot of us old goats. When we moved after 35 years I found boxes in the attic that hadn't been opened since we got them as wedding presents. Kinda fun finding all that stuff. Still its hard to dispose of it.

Yeah, but, as someone once told me, getting old beats the alternative!
