[QUOTE="Pointman, post: 1980315, member: 102254"] When we moved into the new home almost a 1/2century back, my better half and I built a workbench to be shared by both of us. At that time, I loading for my * using LC military - brass. It needed to be substantial so we did the frame out oot4x4's. My wife, at that time, was a sales rep for Corian, and she got me a 12-foot slab of countertop slated for scrap. It's 3/4 inch thick. We did an "L" shape and then bolted it to the garage wall studs. It's built like a tank and has served me well for decades. You can see a portion of it in the picture under my ID. Over 50 years, I've accumulated a lot of tooling and recently have only 1 hard-mounted press, my '70's vintage "Chucker" I also have a M.E.C. metallic press (only for rifle bullet seating. It's mounted on a 3/4" piece of 3/4 plywood. Since I share the bench with "the general", I keep most of my tooling, scale dies, precision measuring tooling, and supplies in large tubs on furniture dollys. Keeps them clean and put of the way when not needed. If we ever need to move, heaven help us. we'll need a dedicated U-Haul just the reloading gear. [/QUOTE]
