Let's See Your Benches!

I've been reloading for a few months, and not having many resources led me to improvise. My reloading bench was born from spare parts from a Webelos stool project I did several years ago. After several iterations of trial and error, I ended splicing two together to add height and strength. Scraps of wood added to the current version, but I expect it will continue to evolve as needs increase. The main advantage, is it's fairly mobile.

I find the powder measure on the side is easier to use when I'm loading a large number of shells. Plus the fact it's removable helps. And yes, there are danglely things on the side.

I set up my "trimming" station on the back of the 'bench". All I need to do is turn the bench around when I have cases to trim.

New:
  • I modified the "shelf" where the trimmer in sitting, and have it attached with "pins". This way I can remove it easily and use the shelf for my scale when reloading.
  • I also added small wheels to the rear legs so it can be moved without having to lift it.

Some awesome ideas guys, my old table converted to reloading bench broke off a while back so now I'm on the hunt for ideas to build my own very sturdy one.
