Reloading Press Stand

[Brad]

We really need a thaw so we can get out more.

 

[fiver]

snowing here right now... again.

bad news:
we had another couple of quakes come through and the big one opened another series of springs just east of my place and shifted the ground water flow.
the bottom end of the range is under a couple of feet of water [again] and it's coming from a new spring.
another one opened up, down in my buddy's horse pasture [just below the one at the range] which goes down to the river, I bet he is going to have to trench it off to avoid a swamp.

and we wonder why the participation level is low on Tuesdays.
crap it's Wednesday whatever.

It's St. Valentine's day, and here we are on a gun board on the internet. Are we getting old?

 

[Brad]

Nah, old is Ben and Rick. We are just chronologically advanced.

 

[Brad]

 

[Ben]

Nah, old is Ben and Rick.

Personally, I'm just maturing a bit more, day by day..............................

Ben

 

[Rick]

I just stopped having birthdays . . . Haven't gotten older in years now.

 

[RicinYakima]

I was 29 for 29 years. Now I'm working on 39 for 39 years.

 

[fiver]

valentines day is just a trap.

 

[RBHarter]

You know it's about gangsters and Tommy guns so that makes it ok to be on gun forums celebrating the day ...... Right ?

 

[RBHarter]

I give up up on the weather .......45° at the house , clear skies at 6:00 last night , clear skies at 6:00 this morning , 12 miles from home an inch of snow and 28° . It's flat line of sight between the 2 places .....

Those were all taken when the press was new. Just got it at Christmas.

The pic was of my grandfather someone gave me at his funeral. I just stuck it there and never put it up.

 

[Brad]

Well you have excellent taste in presses. I have had my T-7 for better than than 15 years and really like it.

 

[Will]

I have an old well used rock chucker on my old bench that has seen a lot of rounds. It’s now retired to just depriming cases and bullet sizing.

 

[gman]

My rock chucker has been in service for 37 years. That was the press I learned to handload on. Still in use today and wouldn't part with it.

 

[fiver]

I wore my first one out and had a new ram made to fit the press. [full 1" diameter]
I had the ram threaded and made a swage press out of it.

I’m not sure how old mine is but it’s been used a lot.
My Dad bought it used and gave it to me when I got married and left the house so I would have something to load on.

How did I miss this thread? Some funny stuff going on here!

Inline Fabrication are great guys to do business with, I purchased some LED lighting to use on my Dillon 650 and it lights up the press just great. I think I purchased something else from them also but memory is a bit foggy right now, I know that it works great whatever it is.
