I’ve just made a portable reloading bench from a fold up workmate as I was limited for space unlike yourself. That looks great you have really made a nice job of that.
Looks like all you're missing is some inline fabrication press mounts. That will also strengthen the area right around your press. Looks absolutely wonderful. Hope it gives you many years of good reloading. Echo
Your new bench looks great. I've watched all of your reloading videos, which inspired me to start reloading. PS ... as you are in a cold area, I would think you'd miss the insulation during the winter, but it's your call.
Unless I missed this in the video can you share what the height of the main bench top came out to be and if the height ended good for how you reload (sitting and/or standing)? Thanks much!
@@biged7175 Based on your height how did you make a decision? Did you actually measure your press (and handle height) dimensions first (from mounting bottom) and decide around that? I am 6'
Nice! The mass will help out a lot. But, dang, I'm envious of the space you've got to put it in. Also, how about heat/humidity? Will you be able to keep the temp stable in there?

Thank you it's very sturdy and does not budge.
Darn good job on the bench Ed, need to rebuild mine come to think of it.
Well worth it I'm very happy with the outcome I bolted my press to it yesterday and there's no movement.
Fantastic bro. Retired now and I have no excuse for rebuild. Don't take so long till the next show bro.
@@johnbouley4514 Will do gonna get the video's cooking.
Nice bench plenty of room.
Thank you, very happy with it.
Great job. I saved your video to my favorites as I will be building a new reloading bench soon when I get my new place.

I mounted the press yesterday, used more 2x4 and 3/4" play under the bench for more support, no movement.
great to see you again ed !!!
Thanx carbon.

Thank you, lol I've bought a giant John Deer kerosene heater.
Very nice bench. I can almost smell the sawdust :)
Thank you, just started piling my stuff back on.
Cool! Your vids were a big reason I finally jumped into reloading.
Thank you I appreciate that, I just picked up a Kimber 10mm so that review needs to be made also a 10mm reloading video.
Can't wait to see when everything is in place

My bench I made much higher than normal since I'm 6'4" I would build your to your height.

@@thegungroup2818 I made it right to the window sill just above my waist. It's perfect for my height.

Thank you, but its my garage and will not keep it climate controlled until the next BIG raise Lol.
Why again did you strip out the drywall and insulation?
There where bugs in it, I also like the look of all the wood.
