Machine154 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Hi, I have been wringing my hands a bit over what to get for reloading. I am very cramped in a 1 bedroom condo with wife and dog right now with no chance to sell it. I managed to clear most of a trunk for a planned reloading setup. I have no other space Obviously, this restricts my gear quite a bit. I saw a post where someone had mounted a Dillon 550 to what amounts to an upside down birdhouse Essentially iit was a U-shape on its side with end plates the bottom was longer and came forward for a better platform Now I was thinking that might be a good route. Any comments on this and should I skip the strong mount in this case? I am thinking the strong mount may hurt me in this case by giving more leverage against the mobile platform.

imhntn Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Here is how I made mine portable. I bolted the strong mount to some 2x6s and counter sunk the bottom of the bolts. Then glued the 2.6s and screwed them to a piece of 3/4" plywood. I then c clamp it to a corner of a table. Very stable and works well and when my wife wants a guest to stay in that bedroom, I can take it off the table quick and put the whole thing in the bottom of the closet.

jsa Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 i have seen the same thing done but instead of clamping to a table i saw it clamped to a work mate folding work bench worked out very nice and easy to move around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennyB Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 1+ on using the work mate as a portable loading platform Store it all in a closet. Also get some bins and mounts and put the mounts on the sides of the work mate DennyB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
