	Joe, that's a very nice display. You've given me an idea for another project in the the reloading room. You & Fitz asked where all the reloading tools went.....well at least some of them ended out here in Oz. Here's part of a display of WRA Co. tools & moulds that belong to a friend of mine. We put on a Winchester display each year at one of our local gunshows. I do the SS rifles and he does the Levers & reloading tools. He has some truly amazing stuff with many still in their original boxes. All located locally back in the 60's & 70's when this kind stuff was around & nobody was really interested in old loading tools. Spud

	I started out many decades ago collecting the Browning designed 1881 Marlin reloading tools. Then discovered the Ideal tools from the period that Marlin owned Ideal, and collected Ideal tools marked with the Marlin Firearms Co. rollstamp. After my interest in single shots developed I began seeking out other tools related to single shot era, and especially those unique to single shot shooting. Along the way I accumulated powder measures, powder tins, breech seating tools, false muzzles and starters, and some other oddball stuff. Plus a bunch of old ammo, brass, and bullet boxes that range from full to just empty boxes. And some tins of old primers. I never considered it collecting until one day a friend looked at it all and told me it was a collection. Most of it is in drawers, cases, or storage bins. The powder tins are about the only thing displayed and they sit on top of one of my safes.

	Wow !!! Some really nice collections here. Lot's of neat stuff. Since we all have lots of time on our hands, here are some shots of my reloading / man room. Really like the old cartridge boxes and old shotshell machines and tools. Anything old related to the shooting sports. I hope the pictures are somewhat clear. My eye sight ain't worth a damn. Dale.

	Yes, that's where I reload. Here's a pic of my bench. Nothing fancy. But it works for me. And yes, I do have OCD. A place for everything, and everything in it's place. Have always been like that. You ought to see my garage. What can I say. Dale.

	So are there a Highboy and Deuce coupe to match the 2 models out in the garage?

	I may have passed my "Best Before" date, but I haven't quite reached my "Expiry" date yet ...

	I'm enjoying this thread immensely, perhaps even more than looking at the guns; you so very seldom see any of this stuff in any quantity. Bill Lawrence
