My new reloading bench, y'all gonna drool over this one.

[Pulp]

It's an antique mail sorting table, from Chicago. The boxes are labeled Sears, Aldens, M.Wards, Hyde Park etc.





I don't have it set up yet, but I couldn't wait to show it off!

NICE!

 

[junkman_01]

Awesome!

 

[Cosmoline]

I like! Now just rig two hardwood table tops with two folding legs each to swing down from in front of the boxes, giving a "C" shape workspace.

Nice, but what are you going to put in all those wee boxes--lol. Seriously you could take out a few horizontals and fit in lots of powder.Congrats on a good find.

 

[Pulp]

Powder will go on the top shelf.

Sadly, I don't have enough different dies etc to fill all the other holes.

Fill holes

Hi Pulp.

What a nifty find. I don't think you will have any problem filling those compartments. Don't forget you have birthdays, Christmas, fathers day & any other special day you can think of to increase the items to fill up those great compartments. Have fun doing it!!!!

So Cool.

My loading bench is an old salvaged kitchen base cabinet with a salvaged upper kitchen cabinet for storage. I put a 2x6 T&G work surface on them.

 

[Legionnaire]

Now that's cool! I've seen such things in antique shops before ... way before I got into reloading. Now that you've given me the thought, I'll keep my eyes open!

So you are going to post another pic when you get it loaded up, right ... right?

 

[Walkalong]

Very cool.

 

[JackCrow]

Very nice, congrats!

 

[THe Dove]

Berry, Berry, Berry NICE Amigo!!!

CONGRATULATIONS ON A GREAT FIND...

PS, I hope you never go Postal!!! HAHA

 

[Fishslayer]

Very nice.

How 'bout one of those little plastic bins to go in each cubbyhole?
Oh... and a Brother label maker.

 

[Mike1234567]

Off topic, perhaps, but that might make a good video or CD holder too.

 

[lightman]

Wow,that is cool! I agree,we need pics after you mount your press and other tools. Lightman

 

[Too_Pure]

Really nice. Thanks for sharing.

My reloading "bench" is a Lee steel stand and the kitchen table.

 

[rfwobbly]

That's way cool.

 

[Tim the student]

Pretty cool. I like mine, but it just doesn't have as much character as that.

 

[FROGO207]

Definitely way cool. Betcha can find lots of areas for those special delivery rounds. If you are like me it will not take long to fill every nook and cranny to overflowing.

 

[dickttx]

Really neat!
I recently found this a couple of months ago when looking for a new setup. Saw another one yesterday but it was about six feet long. I have very limited space. I would have jumped on yours if I has seen it.

Nice find. Since it came from Chicago you should send a picture to mayor Daley after you get all of your reloading equipment set up.

 

[j2crows]

Man, that thing brings back some old, old memories. I worked for the USPS for 34 years and put in many an hour in front of one of those. I used to have what was known as a parcel dumping table for my reloading setup. But, it was built like a tank and everytime we moved I had to get 2 men and a boy to help move it! Looks like you got the one with the metal cubby holes. That would make it hard to open up the holes but, it can be done. I figure that setup will probably only last another 50-60 years

 

[JDGray]

Looks like a sturdy bench, with plenty of storage! I like
