What have you (those of us who are "working from home" or self-quarantine) been doing to pass the time?

I'm get to "work from home" for the next two weeks...so far I have cleaned 9 firearms, cleared out my closet of old/dis-used clothes, and next I plan to completely re-organize my firearm stuff (parts, holsters, gear, etc.)

I found that I can only watch so much Netflix/Hulu/Etc, and I think I have reached the end of the Internet.
 
Reloading is a great time killer. Glad I stocked up on components long ago. Working with a single stage press as I don't trust progressives after a friend almost blew his hand off because of one. At least I find it a relaxing chore. But after the guns are cleaned and lubed what ya going to do then?

I've got 150 rounds of 6.5 Creedmoor brass ready to be loaded...still working on load development. At least Rio is still open so I can chrono some rounds.

Man, there are so many. Reloading is just one.

Remodel the house, paint, put in new lights, add those extra outlets in the garage, clean the A/C units, build a shed, epoxy the garage floor, tint the windows in the house, put in the closet organizer the wife has always wanted, detail the vehicles, take up woodworking, learn an instrument, make knives, sign up for Beach Body on demand and exercise at home, the list goes on and on.

Can you elaborate how this happened? I assume it wasn't the reloading process itself but an issue while shooting the ammo that he reloaded?
 
hehe, been busy, made a gaggle of target stands, and posts to hang the gongs on. little reloading, arm is gonna be an Arny arm once done, hehe, new shelf in reloading room, new inventory of projos and powder.
picked up a pallet of ammo cans, might run to kingman and pick up another pallet, the day of cheap ones is long gone, for sure.
drank some awesome boutique bourbon, a friend sent me, problem is he needs to send a whole lot more, and something for the headache day after.

i have a laundry list of shiat to do, somedays i get a gaggle done, the others i pizz away. heheh.
it is good to have a castle and think you are the king

Yesterday I cleaned "that" side and corner of my of my shop .
Lots of strange stuff has gone there ,never to see daylight or move again , for several years. :roll:
Yikes it really got disgusting. Lots of dust and saw dust bonded and fused by spider webs.
Full disclosure, It wasn't voluntary . I was looking for a "flying spring " out of a gun that did not need to be taken apart, but was ,,,,, because I was bored.
O yeah,, spring never found .
Guess that leaves 3 more sides and corners. :doh:
