Hey folks, looking for a stand to have on the side of my bench for my LnL single stage press.  Looks like only real choice outside of making my own is the Lee press stand.

Are there other options?

Sorry I must be missing something.  These stands are all to lift the press above an existing bench, it still must be bolted down to the bench to work.  I am looking for something to have on the side of my bench so I am not drilling holes into it, or having to use clamps to hold the press on the bench.

I'd still contact the guy at inline fabrication; I'll bet he could hook you up with something.

Failing that, I started out using a folding sawhorse(the legs folded in). I screwed my press onto a 2x4 and C clamp that onto the horse. Be sure to figure out what else you want to mount so you get your 2x set up correctly. This will keep you from ruining 2xs.

I use to reload using a bench grinder stand from harbor freight. It worked pretty well.

I would just build something if I was you.

That being said, why not do the online fabrication? You can get the flush mounted quick detach plate that permanently mounts flush to the top of your bench. Wouldnt get in the way at all.

Inline makes a flush mount setup you router in the top and the plate sets flush to top.

To expand on scatterbrains suggestion . . . Inline Fab makes a quick mount system where you install each piece of equipment on a steel plate and lock it into a either a flush mount plate or a raised stand when in use. The plate or the stand is bolted to the bench top. Removing your old press and installing a different one (or other piece of bench-mounted gear) takes less than a minute.

The photo below shows 2 LNL presses mounted on their plates set into a 2-position shelf mount for storage. The large black plate on the bench top (upper left side of photo) is a flush mount plate that can hold either press or the 4 other pieces of bench-mounted gear I use. The plate must hang over the edge like that, but even without routing it into the bench the system leaves the bench top clear (eg for rifle cleaning) when no equipment is in use.
