The post whore thread.

Use a big c clamp. Done.

I wouldn't be able to clamp it from the side or the back, so it would have to be clamped on the front of the table...which I guess I could use and clamp on a long thing board running the length of the table, but that doesn't get the torque that a clamp on the back side of the table would get.

I don't advocate anything. Just a way to utilize the area to it's fullest, with out having a shit load of holes here n there.

BIG C ClampS

I guess advocating was the wrong word. I am concerned about drilling into the laminate, which is why I am considering alternatives. I'll have a better idea what I've got to work with tomorrow once I cut the laminate and get the bench in its cubby hole.

Shit can the laminate. You building a suzy home maker or full tilt reloading bench? Hence C Clamping the press until you see what works best for you.
For the 3rd press i cut a small piece of wood and drilled the mount holes in it. To secure it to the wood i used 7/16 t-nuts secured on the bottom. This allowed me to bolt / mount the press using C-Clamps, with the option of removal when not in use.

Measure once cut twice

If you are hung up on the whole process there's the Reloading forum where you'll get lots of good ideas and direction, Plus look at pics of our benches.

Arr you saying you have wood, screwed some, or need it?

That's acceptable talk for a ho-party..... we could let it slide if it's couched in prostifriendly terms. :-)
