Been doing my research (watching youtube videos. For the money and simplicity I purchased a Hornady LNL off the EE, most of my other supplies came from Lowes. I'm a veteran single stage reloader using a rock chucker set-up, have also used LEE presses and equipment, unless I was depriming and priing on a Lee their products never seemed to work well.

Since this is a work in in progress I don't have much as of yet, today I built a backboard for shell/bullet bins and a peg-board for various tools and parts that tend to get lost if they aren't right in the way. The only reason I've taken this leap is that the rock chucker belonged to my dad, and since having moved to another state I didn't want to take it from him. That and loading 100-500 .45 at a time can take up a god bit of time running a single stage. Keep in mind that i'm no craftsman I didn't draw up any plans I just used my imagination and started putting boards together based upon rough dimensions I ha din mind based upon the size of my table. Photos are right after completion the stain is still wet, I did my best to keep streaks and brush start/stops out of it. I'm debating whether the same finish will be applied to my bench-top, all the visible wood is birch.

Think about reinforcing the bottom of your bench where you bolt the press down. May or may not wanna clear some room for a case feeder.
