Peggysue? Only a room?
Peggysue:
Dang, only one room. I was starting to get the impression you had a gun house. :-) I've been thinking about putting all my gun stuff in the "lockable" man cave. Not so much for protection from theft, but from keeping "curious" grandkids out. All my fire arms are in relatively cheap safes, also to keep them out of kids hands and those safes are in my tool, workbench, storage room that doesn't have a door. My loading stuff is in another room that does have a door I could lock. My ammo is in a locked cabinet in the loading room. May move the gun safes to that room too, which, I suppose makes it a gun room, but then everything is still in safes. Ah well . . . Life is good. Prof Young |

I'm just finishing a detached shop and pondering subdidiving and having a "secure room for my reloading stuff and maybe a few "inexpensive" firearms since my safe is getting full. Would installing steel mesh panels along the walls help? I noticed a pile of them the other day at the local big box hardware store. They appear to be 1/4 inch rebar welded together in 4 X 8 sheets. Roughly 6 inch squares. I was thinking of lining the wall studs with them and then covering with plywood. (??)
