Reloading Bench - Rowdy Rick - 01-09-2016

http://www.harborfreight.com/60-inch-workbench-93454.html

This is a 60 inch oak work bench from Harbor Freight that I bought a couple years ago for a reloading bench. Has 4 felt lined drawers, a wooden vice, and bottom shelf. Nice quality.

Around $137.00 plus some odd cents. I picked mine up and put it together to save freight.

Yup, I got one and I always say it is the best thing I ever added to the reloading room. It is fantastic being able to get to both sides of a firearm, especially when someone is visiting and observing.

And I use the wooden vise all the time. Can't beat the price!

I have one in my trailer. I don't remember exactly, but I beefed up some parts. The shelf was beefed some and the drawers were also to keep from coming apart eventually. You might look at those drawers. I used glue when I put them together and some small strips under them.

I built cabinets for 30 years and I know where things fail. Take a look at the drawers and shelf under it. I did use glue on all joints. The small things will make this last a long time. Since mine is in the trailer, I figured it was going to take a beating from the ride to Q with stuff in the drawers.

For you guys at the Q. If you need to reload, I have a press and other stuff. You might need to have dies along and a shell holder. I usually have .45 stuff for the 90 and 100. Might have a 38 along this year and maybe even a 40 ?? to early to tell !!

What do you think is in the primers....


RE: Reloading Bench - bruce moulds - 01-11-2016

do you anneal the primer cups each trip, or only every so often?
keep safe,

Bruce you never know what that feller will do. He might even put fingernail polish on the cups to make them look pretty. LOL
