Really over built piece of kit and should last longer than the bench it sits on. Last added some Velcro to my primer tubes to keep them off the bench and out of the way.
      Some pics!!!

      Is that metal mount for the plastic bins hanging on the front of the workbench just a piece of bent metal or from a kit? Been think about mounting something like that. Akro Mills has a single 48" rail but it's too long for my bench. I plan to hang my press on the same side as the rail too.

        Hahaha I bought an aluminum straight edge from Home Depot for $6-7 bucks some washers and went to drilling. 3 holes 2 washers behind the straight edge to provide a small gap and wood screwed in to mount. Way better than spending what inline fabs asking for almost the same thing.

          The bins in the peg board are held in place the same way. The gray bins I found at harbor freight. Oh and to be fair I'm sure inline fabs mounting option is much better made and overbuilt. I am a fan of there offerings I run their roller handle and mount, and bin arms. I just couldn't justify their asking price on the bench rail.

            Thanks Jonb, sounds like a cost effective solution. What size are those clear bins? And now much weight can they hold?

                It's still a work in progress. Should be getting a Dillon XL 650 soon. Those c-clamps are temporary until I figure out my optimal press placement.

                  ^^ I still use clamps for my single stage, I am able to have my whole bench open and not have to lean around things.

                    Are those Craftsman stools, if so how do you like them? I have the Craftsman stool on my wish list from Amazon.

                      Yes they are. I like them but I wouldn't pay $100 each. Got them on sale for $50 each on father's day.

                      EDIT: They're going for $70 now.



                      The red one is $56.

                            Well.........everyone else's looked so pretty! The container on the stool says a lot.

                              The link you posted for the black one didn't work but I found the page using Google. I joined the Craftsman Club and got it for $49.99 + tax with store pick up. Thanks for saving me $ :-)
