That's a sweet setup, thanks for the update!
Glad you liked it
Great idea John I’m in the process of a similar setup for my reloading bench and it seems to work well is strong enough and saves using clamps too hold things in place, Aussie Steve.
Atta boy! I’ve had the same tracks on my bench for the past year and a half. Love having it.
Yeah I can tell I'm going to really enjoy it.
Dang man, didn't even know that was a thing, lol. That would work great for some of my stuff. And really like the price point. Glad your buddy brought you that router set up. Nice job. As usual, great info. Thanks.
For more holding pressure on what you are trying to anchor; rotate the clamps 180 degrees. Triples the hold down force. Just a thought, John. That's how we in tool & die used similar clamps. Your bench is looking good.
Thank you for the help. I'm not familiar with using these so I appreciate your expertise.
Any reason you couldn't use both ends of the same clamp, at the same time?
In John's setup, one end on the trimmer & one end on the primer tool?
Love my t-track. Makes it a lot easier to position the tools that I need and remove what I am not using.
I have duel tracks and love 'em. I'm limited to one long loading bench, and while it's slower changing things in and out, it gives me plenty of options. The hold down clamps work great, but I also use hardwood plywood plates mounted to some machines. Also, I do recommend thru bolts instead of screws...they make a difference.
Looks great good job.
Thanks!
I can see a lot of things you can do with the lock down track.
Enjoyed the show
Thank you
The Rockler T Tracks are great! I'm still waiting for your review of the Trijicon Ten Mile Scopes though...
Coming soon! I just finished my last match of the season. Lots of videos coming in the next few weeks.
Nice John, You are going to love the T track. A second one will only expand your options and I think it is good to hold off to find where you want it. You may find it better closer to the front of the bench or behind the existing track. Good shooting my friend.
Thank you!
Another good one John, I recently went t-tracks in my new bench and ordered a bunch of inline precision stuff for my reloading room.
That’s the combo my buddy used. If you watch the reloading room confession I did with the guy who has a urinal you’ll see it all there.
@@FClassJohn actually it was that video that inspired me to go with t tracks. I really liked his set up and talked the wife into letting me "pull the trigger" on a new bench.
Nice job John 👏.
👊👍🇿🇦
Thank you
Good job :)
Thanks! 😄
Good idea, I have 4 of them on my bench… You could have used some wood glue between the track and bench though, it won’t need any additional bolting…
I want to do this to my benches soon too. Hope to see a follow up after you use it some.
Btw, my Henderson should be here in a couple weeks. Would love to hear your opinion on it too!
I’m working on a review for the Henderson. Probably next week.
Trying to find steel T-track instead of aluminum. The Aluminum cracked on me and so I wont be using it again
I am jealous off all the powder jugs at the 2:40 mark.
Good catch. Yeah that was my backup powder that I don't need anymore. It just went to another friends home today.
I've wanted to do this for a long time, but was concerned about the stability of the track. Might not be suitable for a press, for for trimmers, primer tools, etc like you've done it might be the ticket.
I'll be watching for updates on this one!
My buddy does it for his press and doesn't have a problem but for me, if I was going to use it for the press I'd bolt the track through the top instead of wood screws. Otherwise seems great so far...
Hi John, is that a meplat trimmer mounted to your Lyman? If so what brand is it?
Good catch. I'm sorry but that's a unit I can't really talk about because I'm testing it for someone.
Hi John. I followed you for quite a while now. I'm a fan. I enjoy your videos. They're short and sweet. I have a question. I'm installing T Track on my reloading bench like what you've done. What is the optimum setback from the front of the bench for the track for using the kind of equipment you do I would appreciate any help on this. Thank you.
Best regards,
Dr. Brad.
Thank you, I appreciate the support. As of the T Track, I'll actually be doing a new video soon for installing t track on a new bench I have coming. As for where to put it, I think it comes down to your needs. If you want to use any kind of press that requires it to come down off the bench then you'll want the first track right on the edge most likely and then something like 8" on center for the next one. In this video I simply put the track where it would benefit me needs the most.
this is such a good idea well you know what they say monkey see monkey do thats what im gonna do thanks again john for these ideas
Glad it helps.
As long as the top of the rail is flush with your bench the screws are fine, you wont/can't pull them out.
Good to know.
John, why did you get the Henderson? I thought you liked your Giraud trimmer.
To be honest, I've heard great things about it and I figure why not. That being said I've already played with it and it's freaking amazing so far...review coming next week.
@@FClassJohn awesome man! Really looking forward to this review. Really had my eye on Henderson lately but hadn’t pulled the trigger
nice john you gonna do a henderson video
Absolutely. Probably next week.
i came to see you cut the grooves
Nice! I've been thinking of doing the exact same project, except mounting the tools on planks.
Absolutely. I've already mounted my APP Press on a plank and it works great.
Holy cow you got a Henderson when you already had a Giraud?? Did you ever think about taking a grinder and cutting the track in two pieces a small one on the left side of your zero press and the larger one on the right side that way you wouldn't have any wasted track under your press
I thought about two pieces of track but it started out where I didn't think I'd get the last 4 inches routed out so I decided to go from the left side and just come across with one. It's ok, I really just need on rail for now, and will possible add another later if it seems like I need it.
why not just cut the rail either side of the press and have to seperate pieces
I thought about it but I just decided that ultimately two full length rails will be the most functional long term.
Fill in the biggest area 1st.
