Anyone use these self raising adjustable desks for reloading?


https://www.upliftdesk.com/standing-desks

They are quite sturdy and the whole desk is motorized to raise and adjust on demand.  For me, I like to do most of my reloading while standing.  So am considering  repurposing as a reloading bench.  Putting either one Dillon 650 (if I can find one priced to sell) or my current Dillon 550 + Hornady LnL on it.

Thoughts and experiences?   These aren't cheap $200 crank lift desks, these are actually quite solid and nice.  Drilling holes to mount will diminish value, but that's ok.

I have one of these but not for reloading.

While very sturdy I bet you would need to anchor to wall for using a press.

Yea, you are probably right in that, or at least able to back into a strong wall.  

Can't say I'd purposely buy one (maybe?), But I actually have 2 now, and no longer Work-From-Home

One always needs a bendh for brass sorting, boxing ammo, case trimming etc..  Use your lift desk(s) for that and get/build a solid, dedicated bench for your presses.  Your press bench need not be over 16 inches deep (front to back) so will not take much room and, if built into the wall, will be stiffer than Dick's hat band.
