I have a Lee Challenger mounted on a piece of 2x8 and clamped to my table for use. I decided to mount a Lee Turret that I bought secondhand next to it and there was too much flex. I had a piece of flat steel in the garage I used to weld something else so I cut out a square, drilled holes to match both presses and then degreased it. Grinding the edges off round, I spray painted it with RustOleum, put it on top of the 2x8 and then mounted the presses. Nice and solid.
My question is that I'm now thinking of sparks or static from the steel. Since I spray painted the entire thing should I be concerned with that as in, if I drop a tool or something on the steel do you think I could get enough of a spark to cause a problem? I could cover the entire thing with a cloth around the presses I guess.
