Mate, looks good! I just have the press bolted to a piece of lvl 35x250x400 or so and clamp it to the corner of my dining table. Works good and no worries with wind etc in the shed. My workbench down there has way to much s**t on it to reload at the moment. Wish I had a spare room to do it in, I would set up like you have. Thumbs up

bigrich, OCD just stands for overly careful dude. Pretty good type of bloke to be when playing with powder, primers etc!
Squib loads suck, and a bolt in the head sucks severely. Hope you punch out many accurate reloads on your fine setup mate!
