I just moved into a new house and planned on setting up my reloading bench in the basement. Given the properties of basements (damp, furnace, hot water tank, etc.), are there any problems with setting up my bench in the basement, about 15-20 feet away from the furnace and hot water tank.
-Is there any risk of igtion of fumes from gun powder or cleaning solvents?
-Any risk of humidity destroying my powder and stocked ammo?
-Should I get a de-humidifyer? If so what setting should it be on and do you have any recomendations on which kind.
-Should I store my ammo, powder, primes, etc. in airtight containers? If so do you have any recomendations on which ones or where to buy them.
Thanks for the help, Jim
