Reloading bench

[vin]

Just finished building my new reloading bench and wanted to show off the fruits of my labor and see what other people had set up for more ideas.

Managed to acquire all the reloading tools VERY inexpensively (30 years old, new in the box). the top surface is maple butcher block that I found in my friends barn and was given upon asking about it, it was in rough shape and needed serious refinishing. Cabinets were free and the plexi-glass for the tool bases was free leftovers from my work. Had a good time building it, now I just need to put it to work.

How heavy does a reloading bench have to be? I have a lyman T mag II that i have yet to set up because i dont have a bench.

I have three boards each with either a press, powder measure, or cutter mounted. From there I c-clamp them to any table I choose. At first it was pressboard kitchen table only.

I would even feel find using a hotel end table I have.

Good set up.

I like the butcher's block. I priced a new butcher's block kitchen-type table but it was very expensive.
