I'm lazy so I sit when I'm reloading.

Depends on what I have to stand on. My first reloading setup had me standing on the bare concrete in the garage. That got old in short order. But spent primers, etc that ended up on the floor were easy to retrieve.

Then I moved my setup to a carpeted room in the house. Had to sit because of the height of the desk everything mounted to. The occassional spent primer that bounced out of the press was tough to find in the carpet. And made a racket in the vaccuum cleaner when it found them.

I am planning to build a reloading bench that I can mount my reloading equipment at standing height somewhere that I can stand on a comfortable surface. But that surface won't be carpet. And it probably won't be an unheated garage either.
