Re: What Did You Do In The Reloading Room This Week?
This was an Independence Day project that I'm finally posting.
While it isn't a real bench, and not nearly all of the accessories and supplies, this is my initial setup for handloading in an air conditioned space.
The board fits under the front of the desktop and clamps under the back of it with wingnuts, so it is fairly simple to remove the press for normal desk activities.
Matui vernier caliper came from my paternal grandpa and will always have a home here, but my eyes have an increasingly difficult time with the vernier scale.
Wanting to remain analog, I picked up a dial version from Ebay. Mitutoyo's in very nice condition - quick and easy to read.
Enjoy!
Jeff
