Free: Contests & Raffles.
thanks guys!So I need ideas now!The exposed 2x4 framing, I want to do something with. should I paint, seal up with varathane like the top and trim, or just leave it?Next part, I will have roughly 1/2 of this bench left open, for component lay out, ammo boxes etc. I am thinking this space would be handy to have for brass prep at times. but do not want to mount stuff permanently, there also is no easy way to clamp onto the edge of the table with the trim in the way to the front, but the edge is exposed on the far left of the table.What im thinking now, is to use a scrap piece of the 3/4' birch ply to mount my forstner case trimmer, and my rcbs priming tool. and either clamp it on the edge ( means I have to leave edge un finished), or come up with some other way to mount. could I maybe drill holes through the bench top that match the new mount for the tools, and use dowels of some sort to pin the mount down as I need it? I could build another free standing box like what my powder measures are on as well, but thought that might move around to much and be a general pain. Any ideas here would be helpful. Next, I need more light, the small under cabinet light I had laying around isn't sufficient. is to much light a bad thing here? I was thinking a 48' dual t5 garage light may fit under the upper shelf, and give me more then enough light, but I don't know if thatll be to much and strain my eyes as I work at the bench extended times. Any other "ah-ha" tricks you may have picked up in the past I would love to hear as well! this is my first serious bench dedicated to loading!
think you should throw a man party looks good
