[QUOTE="Mrvmax, post: 2656358, member: 114476"] I threw away my old reloading bench and started used the Hobo Freight woodworking wood bench. It works well but is certainly not heavy duty. I needed to swap barrels on my Savage Striker and could not figure a way to secure my barrel vise. I did not want to mount it to my HF bench and I didn’t want to spend a lot on a vise mount. I ended up bolting the barrel vise to a HF grinder stand. It didn’t work, the torque bent the top metal. So, I cut two pieces of scrap plywood and bolted that and the vise to it. It worked great, I was able to easily remove the barrel nut without any movement of the barrel or stand. Even though I clamped onto the barrel farther from the end than I liked just due to how I mounted the vise. Just an idea for those with limited space and equipment.
