    Moisture!

    What are you guys using to combat the moisture issues? I'm in the basement of my house. Any unique ideas?

    Ya, I'm using the dry zorb packs, small desiccant packs in my die sets, oil etc. I even opened another return in my room to pull the air into a/c system to help pull humidity.

    A welding rod cabinet works well. A friend of mine bought one and it solved his problem.

    I’m lucky, my basement stays at about 68 degrees and 55% humidity almost all year. I keep the guns in the safe with a golden rod but haven’t had rust or moisture issues with anything I leave out.

    Does that seal tightly? If yes, I’d be concerned about it becoming a pressure vessel during a fire.

    I also reload in my basement,I keep my brass in sealed containers,power in original containers in a small metal cabinet mounted up high. Finished bullets go upstairs in the foot locker,an old ak47 crate.

    No it doesn't. All it basically is is a cabinet with either a dehumidifier or something as simple as a 15 watt light bulb that you leave on.
