RELOADING BENCH PICTURES

[meaty-btz]

Moved into the new place, needed a new bench. Bench complete for <$50. Green wood 2x4 and 4x4, top is a 3/4 melamine topper with a scrap trim on the front (poly) and a recycled old 1/2" melamine shelf with scrap spacers underneath for the rear shelf. I still need lots of storage so consider it a work in progress. Just mounted the press and powder drop yesterday. The press is secured with two bolts that are bolted INTO the underlying main 2x4, 3" bolts through the 3/4" melamine top and into the main 2x4 crossmember. Very strong.



Also, my cat in a box we don't quite remember when he was born, but he is somewhere between 18 and 21 years old.



Finally enjoying a hot homemade mocha.

Taking the lead from others, I got authorization to put my loading station in the house.... Not fancy but woks well!

Here's my somewhat portable reloading bench. Nothing fancy, we all gotta start somewhere somehow, right?

Best part is I scored all the desks for free through my work, and all the drawers have locks on them to keep the kiddos out. Plus the matching chairs are nice.

Nothing compared to some of you guys but its a start. Took this right after I mounted my xl650, the rock chucker is for some single stage and case prep. Still waiting on my .40 dies to get the dillon cranking out rounds. I definitely plan on adding some shelves beside the xl650.

^^A nice start.

Finished setting up my reloading bench today! I'm excited!

Dude, I have the same bench lmao.

Built it myself from an unused printer stand. I just bring a kitchen chair out and sit right down in front of it.

I got board today and while looking at my set up... i didn't like how un-orginized it was becoming... plus with all the extra things im building up to... i needed to fix it...

Where are you guys getting all these sweet roll top desks?

I've wanted a big, old, desk like that my whole life.

My wife's friend gave one to us very similar to the ones others have posted. I'm planning to pick up another press and set it up on the desk in the house for when the reloading shed is too hot/cold for comfort.

Check some thrift stores. Those desks were very popular in the 80's-90's.
