I really like that bench, is it something you purchased or did you build it. the T-Track in the top is nice never seen one like that and I have used a lot of T-Track, is it a channel with a T-Track built into it, does it hold the press really solid. great set up and I would like to have more info on it, do you have a link where you purchased it.

It's very common, used for so many things but you see it a lot in industrial machines, robotics, work tables, tradeshows, etc.


There are other makers but this is the probably the biggest. You can source it from multiple places, McMaster Carr is a good one you can also get some of the off brands from amazon. Not sure what kind the OP used, there are tons of options.

I have used a lot of t slot track but mostly for woodworking, jigs, fixtures, benches, router tables. this looks really stout like a 2x2 tube with a t slot in it, is it steel or aluminum, did find some at McMaster Carr it's aluminum and up to 1-1/2" square with multiple slot configurations, could not get your link to work what is the supplier on the link.

Thanks for the compliments. I designed, drafted, and built the table myself. The table is made all out 1.5"x1.5" extruded aluminum that is purchasable through various manufacturers. There are multiple options available for the framing ranging from 1"x.5"-3"x6" 1-4 t-track sided square, retangular, smooth or textured sides, and radiused 90° corner to corner tubing. The table is 2'Lx6'Wx3'H, weighs somewhere between 50-100lbs (Super light), and is solid as a rock. I can work the press ram all the way up, and put more pressure down on the handle after bottoming out than you'd ever need to seat bullets. The feet are a custom crude design I made in my machine shop. They could be designed to mount to the floor. The table top is vinyl wrapped inlayed plexiglass (other materials could be used) supported by a simple cross bar and multiple fasten point design I made myself.

Do you have a source for the t-track tube you used, I found some at McMaster Carr but it's a little different than what you used, I could use some for various projects I'm working on, great looking bench.
