[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1167067, member: 25383"] I like your setup. With the Harrell measure, you should weigh charges at home to figure out how many clicks you want. Not all that hard to do, and will save you a lot of time down the road. Then simply write the data into your log book for the charge. You really want to figure out a way to level the scale for accurate readings. I use a battery powered Pact at the range, and simply set it in a cigar box. Main issue with the LCD screen is being blinded by the bright sun light. I use a piece of tinted plexiglass for a cover on the box. I picked up a piece on flat aluminum plate, and welded another plate to the bottom simply to make it easier to clamp it to a bench. On it I have a couple Forster tools to deburr and clean primer pockets. I even use it at the house to mount my Wilson trimmer. Should have made another one! I tried two or three different stands for the Harrell measure, but ended up with my own design. The Harrell wants drop tubes, and a small wood cigar box is the best thing I've used (I use mostly 4" and 6" tubes dedicated to a case neck size). Fred Sinclair has them all. Believe it or not, I put all the reloading stuff in one large cigar box (about 15"x18"x10") with a K&M arbor press. The plate is loose as I have never bothered to find a location for it. I use a K&M priming device, and once I remove it from the box it stays in my back pocket. The next thing for my setup will be something like a Black & Decker Workmate (somebody make an aluminum one). Don't need a big one, and 18" x 24" is plenty big enough. Still want to keep everything light. gary [/QUOTE]
