Loading bench height
I'm 6'3" and bench was at 37" until I slipped in a set of concrete legs to bring it up to belt buckle height today. About 6" more and no more stooping to reload.

Thanks for the idea!!

Looks fine if you want to load stranding up, which I don't. I want to stand up as little as possible.

I skinned that cat and can sit with my hi stool.

My bench is 42" and my presses all sit on 6" risers

I can't sit down to load......I can't imagine sizing brass or running a progressive sitting in a chair.......but I stand up all day for a living so I suppose I'm used to it









I have a brand new Hornady LNL AP still all boxed up that I'm going to put in a spare room but haven't quite figured out the furniture requirements

It's a hobby, and I got time. Just appreciated ideas for less bending without the messes I know I'd make trying to do it off'n a backless stool / chair on rollers. I do 'em one at a time, not in stages. Suits me, and glad to hear of similar satisfaction with anyone else's operation.

After looking at these, I'd be embarrassed to show you a picture of my bench right now...

Seriously, next time I build a work bench I'm going to make it 4'x 8' and cut off one corner and throw the rest away.

I opt for a seat for either single station or progressive loading.

All it has to do is work. Ted's is quite impressive, though...

I was referring to how clean those benches are.

It was picture day so everything was put away and cleaned

Today......it's probably a foot deep with stuff and junk that needs attended to
