"My bench is messier than your bench ..."
Undoubtedly. My bench is clean and organized so that I can always find everything with ease. At only 5' long and 2.5' wide, it has to be.
With organization, I've happily handloaded over 300K rds of 16 different calibers (7 pistol and 9 rifle) in the last 25+ years on a Dillon RL550B I learned on, then a XL650 w/casefeeder when I got into necked rifle calibers and in early 2020, the XL750 shown below.
Further, for me the joy in reloading is the zen like quality of the repetitive motions and the relaxing effect of the work so my bench is always like this. Even when reloading I put things away to keep the clutter at a minimum.

My tumbling room is to the right of my bench out of the picture where I have my tumblers and most of my stock. Even though it's behind a closed door, it's always clean and organized as well.
