My buddy just got into reloading his own ammo to save money and wanted to build a bench to do so. With my help this is what we came up with.

Laminated yellow pine top. 2x10 from menards "another borg"
Aruco ply for the carcases and drawers.
Scrap red oak for all the trim.
100lb full extension slides.
Dovetailed all the drawers.
stained the oak before applying it and the drawers and carcase. Simple poly finish. about 4 coats on the top, two on the cases.

Not much, simple design, but it fits the bill for what he wanted.

Brett,

I'm sure your friend will appreciate it! Nicely done.

It's much better than the one I use!

Nice job Brett. Rather fancy indeed for reloads and your friend should be well pleased with the results.

Well done...

Always great to do things for friends.

Nice work on the reloading bench Brett.
I bet he gets years of use out of it.

I'd say he owes you a few flats of shells! Maybe a nice Perazzi too.;)
