My new portable reloading bench

$40 for the finished birch wood, a couple of legs, some 3/4 screws, and a few hinges.

The legs have a hinge behind them so that they collapse into the wall.

You might need to beef that up a bit. I made one kinda sorta like that and forming cases ripped it right off the wall. other wise looks good.

Now lets see. Ya need a way to secure the legs to the concrete. I would use a concrete anchor and a steel bracket with a bolt thru the wood to secure that rig down . Otherwise the press would pull the top off the ground.  :twocents: :twocents:

After the state allowed me to donate my house and shop to my EX. I've used a beefed up goodwill computer desk for awhile now. Drawers,keyboard slide out , and a bunch of cubby holes for stuff. It does need to be bolted down tho.

Here's my portable if the link works. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/155024/frankford-arsenal-portable-reloading-stand?cm_vc=ProductFinding Had For it I don't know how long think I paid $50. Works surprisingly well. Once I put the osb up in the shop I'll upgrade to a real stand (loading bench)
Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.
