Press Stand

this is what i did. aluminum bracket that slips onto my gun room work bench and is secured with two wing nuts.
multiple brackets allows quick change between press, sizer , vise, or what ever without holes threw the counter top. when i need the room i remove it from the counter and i have an unobstructed work area again.

Someday that press will come with 4 holes, and it won't suck. Then they won't sell any loadmasters, because those will be redundant. Hey, I just figured out why the Pro1000 only comes in 3 holes! So people will buy their Loadmasters!
 
That bracket looks interesting - I have a wood desk and I am uncertain that the bracket will fit but I am more concerned about marking the top of it up - I don't want to pay for a damaged desk.

That looks great, now where in heck do I get " a lead melter/press holder". How much? Also is it stable enough?

I want one more for the ability to dissemble and set up at the range for testing out loads. IE loading on the fly :D.
 
I used to reload in my front room. I bolted my press to a piece of solid walnut, but you could use anything stiff enough. A piece of the non-slip matting you put in your tool box drawers so stuff doesn't slide around and a large c-clamp to hold everything to the table. No scratches, no dents.
 
How do you keep your bullets straight while seating, with the presses canted back at an angle like that?

The seating die should guide the bullet to ensure concentric seating. With plain-based bullets, you would have to hold it in place until it enters the die, just like if the press was mounted vertically.
