Not bad. I'll try to post up a little stand I made for my Rock Chucker single stage. Cost me about $10. I can take it wherever I need. Put it on a work bench, set it up on a pickup bed, etc... Solid as a rock.

I mount my presses on a 2x6 for a tool holder and make a fitting on my bench so I can interchange presses...it is ugly but it works. I've seen guys get fancy and dovetail it all together. I use a long bolt from the bottom sticking up for studs and a wingnut to speed changes.

Take a look at the work bench.
I recently built a reloading bench off these plans but slightly modified.
Works great, if I was to start over it would be 8-10 foot long

Very cool designs. Did you use the one with the peg board?

Yes I did use the peg board.

Made some slight changes to mine from the plans.
1' longer, 6" deeper, 6" taller, added middle shelf, 1 1/2" thick bench top,raised bench top 2", added 2nd shelf above bench top and added shelf under bench top.

IF I were to start over it would be 8' long overall.

Very happy with the way it turned out

Little portable outfit I described above. Sure it only works for a single stage press, but it's nice to be able to move it wherever I want. Could easily load out in the field on a pickup tailgate if I wanted to. I need to round off the corners and slap some paint on it.
If anyone wants dimensions, let me know.
