"Cool roller handle on your MEC!! (Serious lefty, huh)?

PS: What is that Alien's umbilical cord-looking thingy over your press?! Is Segourny Weaver in your garage? "
Sorry it took me so long to respond...........
The alien looking thingy that you are referring to is a .75" conduit connector that feeds the shot bottle. There is 75# of shot in the hopper directly above it. The hopper hangs from the garage rafters with a safety chain on it. I have pulley system to lower the hopper for filling with shot, and raising it back up to feed the bottle/loader. I can go marathon loading since I don't need to stop and refill the bottle constantly, plud it's much easier to load when it's on the floor. I have thought about doing the same for the powder, but haven't gotten around to it yet, plus it seems that it might be a little dangerous having that much powder hanging over one's head.
I thoroughly enjoy reloading, almost as much as shooting!Comment

Thanks for the compliments guys. This what my bench used to look like. It was good, but I needed more storage, so I bought some used kitchen cabinets and a new countertop with 3/4" plywood under it and got a lot more storage and a sturdy bench.Comment

Finally bought a press of my own. My set-up is a bit rough, just slapped it all on the welding table so I could load some .44 for tomorrow. The Lee Challenger kit is pretty nice, though the powder scale is absolutely terrible. Next thing to buy is more brass and a digital powder scale, then I need to re-do the base plates on everything so it's easier to set-up and stores more compactly.

My wife said if my bench looks like it belongs in the garage it will go in the garage. I found these cabinets on sale at home depot had a custom top made on inch and a quarter plywood. Put locks on the doors and drawers now I have a bench that looks good in the house and both my presses store out of sight along with all dies and stuff. Total cost just under 300 bucks.Comment

Newly completed Reloading bench
Here is my reloading bench. I just finished. I thought I would knock it out in a little more than a weekend. I miscalculated....it really turned into a project!
