I've searched the Internet and have had no luck.

Can anyone with a Redding T-7 press give me some basic dimensions of the base where it mounts to a bench?

Mine shows up tomorrow and I need to get a steel plate cut to mount it to.

The overall dimensions of the base and the bolt holes would be greatly appreciated.

The press protrudes inboard* 4 1/4" D (depth) and is 4 1/2" W (wide).

The bolt pattern is a rectangle 2 1/2" D X 3 1/4" W.

That pattern of bolt holes is offset from the left front corner inboard by 1" D X 5/8" W.  


Be careful with the above dimensions.  The base is NOT a simple rectangle, it is actually a pentagon.  The rear edge (most inboard from the bench edge) has a slight taper to it, sloping outboard* from its midpoint.

Is that what you were after?


*  Inboard and outboard are relative to the edge of the bench.  Inboard goes farther away from the edge.  Outboard goes closer towards the edge.

Yessir. I appreciate the help.
