Re: Dillon 650XL or 550B

Now how and where to mount it is the question? I thought about mounting to a plywood bracket then holding it down with a Workmate portable bench but that does not seem stable enough. Any ideas on how to make it portable or am I better off just building a permanent bench?

Its time to face the facts--Your new hobby will eventually take over at least half of a room in your house :lol: so many folks suggest building a heavy duty permanant bench area. Some have suggested fastening (lag bolts) a 2x into wall studs and building a bench off of that. If your half of the room needs to look nice, some suggest using a piece of pre-covered countertop. Myself, Im not a fan of pressboard for a workspace, preferring good old plywood.
