New Reloading Bench Project Complete

[SniperJoe]

I just completed rebuilding my reloading bench and wanted to post it. I got most of my ideas from other posts on this forum. The quick change mounting system is from In-Line Fabrications. Inline Fabrication - Inline Fabrication They are made from almost 1/4" steel plate and very strong. With 1 base plate and legs, you can buy top plates for each of you reloading equipment and by removing 2 thumb screws, change to whatever you need (Progressive, single stage, trimmer, vise etc.). You can by a small storage bracket for each to keep all your equipment neatly hanging on the wall out of the way when not in use. I also bought a set of "Tee" tracks and routed them into the bench so i can easily move the presses to where I want them, or put the entire mount away on the shelf. I got this from "The Ulitimate reloader" The new Reloading Bench System at Ultimate Reloader « Ultimate Reloader Reloading Blog . I have a bit of OCD and need everything to have a place, so I have bins for dirty and clean brass in each caliber. Small bin for bullets in each caliber and a bin for each primer type I use. Also I found these plastic storage boxes at Staples that fit the turrets for my Lee Loadmaster perfectly and for the single stage dies, I took a piece of plywood cut to fit in the storage boxes and drill them to hold the dies. I can fit 6 dies in each box. The boxes also fit in the toolbox from Harbor freight like they were made for it. I hope this gives others motivation to also re-do their bench. With everything in its place and easily reachable, it makes reloading faster and more enjoyable.

Very nice. I like a well organized and well thought out work area.

that slide track to move the press is the coolest thing i have seen, my bench is cramped with the single stage and the 650 permanently attached

With the track, you can easily move the press to where you want it for that reloading session and put it on the shelf when done. The two 4 foot tracks with 4 knobs was only $55 delivered.

I just got into reloading and was thinking about building a bench and have all the space I want for it.
