    I started reloading on a shelf in a linen closet.
    Built a king size bench after buying a house.
    Ended up using the Lee Loader on the kitchen counter, because there's no woman to yell at me.

    Nice. Not portable and definitely no room to spread my wings, but pretty happy, and already cranking them out.

    Appreciate the input guys.

    I do similarly. No casters and a disc blade on the floor, clamp to the edge of my bench. I have a couple different presses for different purposes. hc18flyer

    Lee Has their Press stand for about $100 out the door on their site.
    These men and their hypnotized followers call this a new order. It is not new. It is not order.

    I bought a Black & Decker Workmate 425 off craigslist for $30. Had some scrap 3/4" plywood that I doubled up to bolt or clamp the presses to. Added a cleat to the bottom so the workmate top would clamp it in place. I can setup wherever I need and when it's not used for casting/reloading it good for other tasks and folds up easy for storage and transport to job sites especially when I need an extra hand or out feed table. It's a bit heavy but you don't have to worry about tipping over. Any parts you need are readily available.

    Less than 1/2 the cost of the Lee stand, has 4 legs instead of 3.

    Size/Prime a few cases when starting off with a progressive and put them aside. You can plug them back into the process when a bad/odd case screws up in the priming station and continue loading.

    One of my best portables is based on a used disk blade as well.
