RELOADING BENCH PICTURES

How hard was it to get the wooden handle off of your lee press ?

My Loadmaster was a cheesy press fit, my only b*tch with that machine. I'll thread the arm and do it correctly.

Mine came off easily as I sized a .308 case. The bare rod then gouged my wrist pretty effectively.

I plan to thread the rod and attach a proper handle to avoid future bloodletting.

Loadmaster roller conversion goodness.

Not very. It was just a hole drilled in the wood ball that was tapped tight onto the handle. I came off in my hand in the first 100
full lenght sizing of 308's. I was suprised, I thought it would have been threaded or glued on some way.
That's why I went with 2 ton epoxy and a larger ball to grip.

I just finished mounting my progressive. I only had my rock chucker before and just added the hornady ap. I got this craftsman bench on craigslist for $75. It has a 1-1/2" thick MDF top and I covered that with a custom 14ga stainless top. I am looking for a nice locker for my powder, primers, and loaded ammo.

Nothing like some of yours. I wanted a long range precision setup that I could "hide from my wife"

And then it needs to hide.. The bench is very solid and does not vibrate at all (2.5" thick)

Now nothing here: this is when my wife is home.. 65" long.

Just completed 2x4 basic workbench kit. Came out nice and its pretty sturdy. Just need to mount the press now.

[punkur67]

Put a bullet feeder on my progressive and ordered a mec 650 for my shotgun. Case feeder for my progressive is next.

UPDATE:

Got the 650 mounted but I'm still waiting on the Eno's as it should be upgrades, case feeder , tumbler. But it's ready to rock!




Edit: Dillon order came in.

Ok, here is my setup. Things have changed and will continue to change as I learn more about reloading, obtaining more equipment and components. But for now, here is it.

Note; I put my tumbler on the workbench while it's running. The mats on the bench help absorb noise and vibration, and keeps the tumbler from "walking" itself off or into something, like the car for example. When not in use, the tumbler will be under the press stand.

Update:
Installed my MEC 650 and my bullet feeder on my Hornady AP. Bench is getting filled up fast but is not difficult to work on. Cant wait to get out of my condo so I can build a bugger bench. The wife is not the biggest fan when one of our 2 bedrooms is filled with my gun, reloading, and fishing gear.

Thats what I call priorities.

My use to be spare room is now the gun room. Not the biggest or the best but it works for me.

One side is for loading


Other side is for working.






My Gun room Buddy


I leave the shooting table up in the center of the room for some work but mostly for cleaning.
