RELOADING BENCH PICTURES

I am going to go out on a limb and guess that you are not married.

Lolz.....

Here's a photo of my setup. I stole the idea from M47-Dragon on pg. 2 of this thread. Thanks. I picked up the desk for $150 at a fund raiser for a high school Ag program down in Morgan Hill.

This is the Lee Challenger breech lock kit mounted on the bench that came with my house. All I had to add was a 2x6. There's plenty of room on the bench for more.

Here's my bench. Currently only reloading .45acp and .40s&w. My single stage is sufficient for the amount I currently shoot, but when the weather warms up, I'll probably be looking at acquiring a progressive system.

The bench in my garage gets used for various stuff.



The bench in my "shop" is where the press (and most of my other stuff) is located.

Here is the wife's new Christmas present. She's already loaded 150 rounds of 9mm. The bench is a second hand Ikea kitchen Island I paid $80. I copied someone else's idea for using a cheap Ikea LED lamp to light the press head. For 10 bucks this is a great addition.

Wowza. Thanks for all the great ideas!!

Lots of great ideas, I like the efficient use of small spaces. That is a slick stand Jape and noticing all the pics with a vice nearby - why not just make a platform for the jaws? My vise will make for a 40" work height and a pair of Simpson Strong Ties for framing might just do the job.

I've been shooting for a while and given the current political crap were in, I bought a Lee progressive and can't wait for it to get here.. have a few goodies to get started with.

Veloc's comments -- a bit of hindsight always works well.

That is exactly what I did with my vise, it works great since it swivels. There are four SDB's mounted there.

Here is my little setup. I don't have a garage or a shed. So I built a bench that would work inside.





I just keep adding to her as I get more and more deeper into the reloading thing. And dont laugh... I know I need to get more stock...

That's a classy setup

Small footprint home set-up

I guess I haven't done this yet, the bench is a 36″-by-17″ kitchen cart-thing from Target with the wheels removed to help stabilize it. My garage is not a reliable place to reload, or attached. UPDATE: now it looks like this with the gift RCBS Piggyback II, humping on my old RS-3 press.
I'm missing the "Cam Wire" for the primer actuation, primer tubes, and a powder measurre - and the "ejector" wire...but I got a mess of shell plates
<sigh>

Got tired of my paw cramping up on the small wooden ball/handle
on my Lee classic cast press so I swapped it out.
Bought a pool ball of of Flea Bay, drilled it out and two ton epoxied
it to the handle.

I only load 3 calibers. Everything fits pretty well in the cabinet. I can push it anywhere I want to load.

This is perfect for my apartment! Thanks for the idea.
