    Finished Project

    View attachment 3710 View attachment 3709 View attachment 3708 Finally found some material to kick start and finish my little portable re-loading table. Its small and looks crowded in the pics , but that is to show what can be mounted on as needed. The table is 5/16" x 20.5" x 10" , drilled and tapped to mount press and all the goodies needed to re-load. Bottom frame is 3" x 1 1/2 tubing found. The main mast is heavy duty pipe and collar welded on as best as I could. The table itself can be un-screwed from the frame to dis-assemble and being in the collar, makes it easy to swing left (un-screw) and work from any angle and still be solid and stable to work with . Made to hold 2 - 550-b presses front and backside. Wasn't sure how stable it was going to be so I mounted only one. Will mount the other later on. Got tired of working in the storage area outside where it got HOT . Now I can re-load in the comfort of my room where its cooler.®

    Nice bench, you won't regret building it so staut. I built mine out of 2x4's and plywood and it rocks a bit when reforming some rifle brass and gets annoying over time...

    Nice boat in the background too!

    George, that is a super-nice bench! I'm currently planning one. You raised the bar with your workmanship. Now I'll have to get stain and urethane.
