So are we just going to pretend that your wife didn't fall down the stairs after she photo-bombed that second picture?

 

[Blinddog]

not the wife, just the daughter sneaking into the pic. I'm still amazed my wife let me take over this room. Once she did I just kept adding things in and put a lock on the door.

That bench looks great! Did you design that on your own or did you use the Nat'l Reloading Mfgs Assn. plans as a basis? I am in the process of upgrading my existing bench and was kicking around using their blue prints available online. Thanks!

Nice use of space. Looks really functional... till you see the Red Sox sticker. Minus 2 for poor taste. If we have an MLB season this year, you will be Judged!

I am not a socks fan at all but since my wife reloads too she just had to put it on there.

Heavy Duty 3 x 8 ft. loading bench is heavy enough to allow storage for loading tools, components, and loaded
ammunition. Top is constructed from 4" Bull Pine bridge timbers and has a replaceable 3/4" exterior plywood
top. Built over 30 years ago, and still using the original top. Top surface is 44 1/2 inches from the floor. Bonanza
Co-Ax, Lyman Crusher, and Hornady ProJector are mounted for use. A 1/2" aluminum plate inletted into the
bench surface is drilled and tapped for various tools offering quick change if necessary,

Thank you! Yes sir, it is based off of the NRMA plans. I went a full 8' wide and tweaked the cabinet configuration.

LOL really? That's my homemade bench I built with my very rookie carpenter skills but it works good for me!

That's what I thought, it's frame looked very similar. I was hemming and hawing about whether or not to use the NRMA plans but when I saw your bench it was a green light. Looked good! I'm in the middle of slapping mine together right now. Anything you would change on your bench in retrospect?

Yes sir, thank you. I made a couple small changes after it was built, I added to the shelves in the cabinet but other than that I haven't done anything else. Only other thing I may consider doing is running a brace from underneath the center of the bench angled down to the backside lower shelf on top of the rail to help prevent a little sagging. There is some, it's very minimal and that's why I haven't done it. But I still may because I'm a tweaker.

Getting my new bench setup. Waiting on my order from in-line Fabrication to mount my press, and other items.
