Just what I needed

Date:February 25, 2011

The bench legs and supports that came were of excellent quality. The bench I built is only 2' x 4' but is perfect for my reloading work. It is very sturdy. I used good quality 2" x 4" lumber and 3/4" plywood. I have a press mounted on one corner over the leg and it is very solid. I have plenty of room for work and storeage. If I had the room I would have built it 2' longer and I have no doubt it would be just as sturdy.

just what the doctor ordered

Couldn't be happier with the ease of assembly. Fits easily in my garage and accomadates all of my reloading supplies with room to spare, Wish I had found this years ago.

2x4 Basics Bench

Date:April 8, 2012

Simply put, this is as close to being a perfect system as you will ever find. I have had mine for a little over a year and I like it more every day.

The one I have now I use for my reloading setup. I used 3/4" plywood for the work surface and both shelves. This does make for a very sturdy bench and shelves with a tremendous weight capacity, but it also makes the bench VERY heavy. I did have to cut a notch in one of the 2x4's of the frame to accommodate my RCBS turret press, but you may or may not have that problem depending on the press you mount on it. I put pegboard on the back and have been able to mount everything I want on it so that I do not have any tools/materials I am not currently using on the bench but still within reach.

I am planning on getting another one for fly tying. I plan on using 3/4" for the top and 1/2" for the shelves. I believe this will retain the structural integrity I am looking for and reduce the weight significantly.

If you were willing to expend just a little more effort than I did, you could make a very visually appealing piece by staining the visible surfaces. Mine lives in what my wife refers to as the "man room" or the "war room" depending on her mood so appearance was not an overriding concern.
