All my stuff is out in a morton building, been wanting something I could sit in the living room and get stuff done while the wife watches TV. Harbor Freight has these little grinder stands for about 30 bucks which are amazingly stable and if need be, I can weight the shelf with lead ingots. Mounted up a Lyman All American Turret press because it's designed to be mounted away from the edge of the work surface and therfore, the up and down movement will be in line with the center of the stand. It's high enough that with this press, I can work it standing up without stooping or can do it sitting. I used elevator bolts on a square of 2x12 so the heads would sit flush, then mounted the press to another piece, also with elevator bolts so the two planks mate up flat. I'll get some less obtrusive C clamps. If this works out well, I'll mount either my Hollywood Senior or a C&H H style press I have, both of which also sit away from the edge. I figure I can make a plank and mount one of the Lee quick change plates on it for various powder measures, prming tools, etc. I think I'm gonna like this.
