I got it on Amazon. It's not cheap, but easily attainable in the US.
Thinking of reloading,

I do all my sh it on an Excel file as I had used it lots before I retired.
It really works for me, notebooks get lost, well mine always did.
Plus you can add whatever you like as per cases make used, how many times fired, powder grain loads, which powder etc the list is endless, anal me.

Thats all good until your drive fluffs up LOL
Either works but the important thing is being able to reference.

Your garage may not be an ideal place to reload and store your new equipment as you have described it.
Cold is not ideal, a space heater produces wet heat, and you will have a flame source. Dampness kills any tools over time, I'd be inclined to store your new reloading gear indoors and take it into the garage as and when... same with powders & primers.
Enjoy the journey though, it's a great branch of our hobby.
I use google drive, that way my data spreadsheet is also on my phone.

I am not good enough to get into learning how to operate that one as well.
Essentially you use it like any other folder on your computer, but it backs up to the cloud.
id thought of that mate, i was at lest going to keep the primers and powder indoors, i may even commandeer one of the spare bedrooms and just do it all in there
all that is beyond me I'm afraid, I'm strictly a pen and paper man, i see word and excel stuff like that as womens work

i take it primers are in short supply in some areas, as iv heard this before, if thats the case ill go buy as many as i can tomorrow
i need a wet tumbler but im struggling to want to pay over £200 for a spinning drinks bottle with a airfix motor on it, but i cant see a way round it
If you must have one , Amazon- rock tumbler/polisher and buy the pins separately from wherever .
Then when you realise that shiny brass doesn't make your ammunition more accurate , you'll have saved enough money to buy an ultrasonic
what does the ultrasonic do that the tumbler doesn't, its not so much shiny brass but i thought it easier to see any faults in the brass if its cleanIf you must have one , Amazon- rock tumbler/polisher and buy the pins separately from wherever .
