Ask them if they will accept a photo of the press cut to pieces.
Or a video of you using a chop saw it to pieces.
Or if werst comes to werster, cut it up into slabs to make the parcel smaller.
Every cut lessen the weight............right...............

Ya think I could get away with cutting it up?? I'm gonna email them cause that could save some money
 
Looks like a Case for RCBS Warranty Repair.

As these two guys have mentioned " Quote Originally Posted by Expendable Nate...I'm kinda hoping that will work I have been emailing them and they asked for pics and I explained I'm in Canada so fingers crossed''

And Wbad ''One thing about the warranty stuff. Include all your contact and shipping info/photos, etc in one email. Usually when I do this the next response i hear back is that the replacement is in the mail! ''

Call the 1-800 number before you put a torch to it.

Oh I would put the hat back on good old RCBS has stopped returning my emails so has the Canadian distributer for them. I'm thinking about biting the bullet (hahaha pun) and going blue
 
I like tootall's approach to shoring up his particle board bench. :)
Here's my simple but sturdy solution for a regular duty Lee press:
3/4 spruce ply laminate countertop repurposed as workbench.
2x6 girders underneath all tied to 4x4 structure with 3/8 carr. bolts to eliminate flex.
Just off to the left I have a drill press mounted. Also a 5'' vise on the right end.
I wanted the press to be removable but didn't want to buy the Lee plate.
5/8 plate of baltic birch ply, pretty rigid stuff (used in platen diemaking) has 11 layers.
Carriage bolts hold the press to the plate. Fender washers to space the 5/16 thru bolts giving 7 support points.
I've been depriming and neck sizing some 303 as well as reloading pistol cartridges.
This sucker won't move, unless I reach underneath and undo the wing nuts.

I could have made this from steel but as noted previously, wood is more forgiving when you are torqueing the bolts to distribute the load
 
well since every one stopped returning my emails i just went ahead and shipped it back to the states and well im surprised. only $26 to ship it to Cali. probably would have been twice that in Canada so in the end should have just shipped it instead of trying to save a buck. now hopefully they get it back to me soon my 1911 is hungry
 
I broke my rcbs kinetic bullet puller, emailed them a picture and my address. I didn't get a reply so I just went and got a collet bullet puller. A few weeks later got a new kinetic puller in the mail. I have one of those partner press kits, still going after more than 20 years.
 
sh@t!! is decidedly mild.
RCBS will replace it at no cost. Their warrantee is for the life of the kit regardless of who bought it new. Assuming it is an RCBS press.
