Anyone got any experience with the inline Fabrication Quick Change system? I just made a pretty big order from Inline Fabrication for a complete Quick Change setup for my reloading bench.

I went with two baseplates so I can have couple of different pieces of equipment on the bench at the same time. Then I needed top plates for 6 presses, a powder measure and a case trimmer. Also got wall mounts to keep everything organized and off the loading bench.

My old loading bench evolved organically over a period of 25 years and ended up a chaotic mess of stuff jammed in anywhere it would fit to the point where stuff wasn't as accessible as it should be. As I am starting a new reloading room from scratch, this seemed like a good time to spend the dough to do it properly. For sure the Inline Fabrication stuff isn't cheap once you've ordered a bunch of different pieces but from what I've seen it seems to be a really good system.

I’m very happy with mine. Saves a lot of space over having multiple presses on your bench.

That is my exact goal.

I'm glad to her people saying they are happy with this system, as it wasn't cheap to buy.

I will have three of Dan’s Micro Ultramount 4” units. Two for two Coax’s, and one for a Lee Classic 4 hole turret. Like the OP, I just replaced my bench. My original “bench” was a repurposed 24”x 96” door. I now have a Uline industrial packing bench with a 1-3/4” maple top (and much more counter space). [/img]

I bought essentially the same packing table fro Uline. I chose the composite wood top. I like how the table legs are cutout for electrical outlets so I made up some extensions w outlets to have power at each corner of the table. My old setup had multiple extension cords and power bars stashed under the bench. This is so much better. :)

I'm hoping my order from IF will arrive this week as well. I'm gonna router the base plates into the table for the cleanest installation. ;)
 
Little curious on the RCBS trimmer, does your jaws scratch the bases of the brass when using it? I have one here I am a bit loath to use, and there is no adjustment on the jaws.
 
My dad owned a Refrigeration business for 55 years and he had the exact same set up on one of his testing benches in the shop. He came up with the idea in the late 60's and mounted his test equipment to the bench, and once done the vise or what ever would be put back on a shelf and a plate would be inserted to make the bench flush again. I incorporated the same thing on my reloading bench in the late 70's when I started to reload and I think most of my friends copied the idea. I just about fell over when someone was talking about a company that basically made the exact same thing my dad designed 50 years ago.

It is a great way to quickly change operations without taking up bench space. I have my original Rock Chucker for doing black powder and a small run of something, I have my Lee 1000 for depriming only of pistol brass (not much good for anything else), I have 2 lube sizers, my Dillon 550 and my Hornady press all on the system. I store them all on two shelves of my locker and takes just minutes to change .

IF offers wall mount and bench mount storage docks. The wall mount will be excellent for keeping equipment organized, safely stored and out of the way.

I agree. I installed this one on the right side for the Auto Tricklers.

Did your table come with that centre leg? Or is that something you've added?

I added that to support the center of the table.

Good idea. I've got a 4x4 that is long enough to cut down to fit. Think I'll add that as well. Doesn't cost anything and is sure to help make the table surface steadier.

PS Be careful about how much weight you put on the lower shelf. I loaded mine up w bullets etc and it collapsed. I had to put a length of 2x4 under it to prop up the shelf.

I used an adjustable table leg from Ikea. I also attached the bench to the studs in the wall behind it. That combined with the center support, and that bench doesn't budge. Which is a big change for me from my old set-up.

Hmmmm ... I happen to have one of those Ikea legs. I'll have to have a look at it and see if the length is right for that application.

I also attached my table to the wall studs.
