start of my portable reloading set up

[corey012778]

basically, this is for in my house.
$20 break down table from big lots. (going to add some thing to the bottom to hold on leg on)
an old shelf from a gun cabinet project.
the small piece of wood is for my lee turret press that I am waiting for to come in.
small piece of wood to raise my powder measure up so I knew I have a enough room for a scale. (don't think I need it)

tables total investment maybe $22 by the time I buy the last parts I need

Looks like a good start. Be sure to take a few more pics during and at the end of setting the table up

I will, need to get a picture of the bottom of the table to show how it go together. going to change how I mount the powder measure. going to a wing nut/bolt. needs to be easy to remove if need be.

One the bottom u see the LEE BENCH PLATE mounting kit. Press does not move as much as video, the iphone 5 accelerates movment.

I have mounted them on wood or steel to clamp them to a table before.

I live in a very small house so mine had to be portable by necessity. I bought a Black & Decker Workmate for the bench and reinforced that with a slab of poplar. Drilled holes for my presses and powder measures and use chairs as shelves when I am loading. When I am done, I fold it up and the gear goes in a box.

+1 on the Workmate. A 2' x 3' top made of a couple layers of particle board, with appropriate mounting holes is just what the doc ordered.

That Workmate has really surprized me. I have full length resized a bunch of 50 BMG cases among other things and it has yet to complain a bit. Come spring it is going to double as a lightweight shooting bench for me.

think I need to add a little more support the top or switch the top completely? do have some scrap counter top left from a kitchen remodel.
