I was in need of an arbour press - so I made this one. Ball bearing pivot and oilite bearing for the ram.

That is awesome. Is that a pressure sensor underneath?

I got fed up with toting two gun cases to the range with bench tools so I knocked this together out of an empty drill case I had kicking around.

Thank you. Yes, pressure sensor, the trace on the computer screen shown how much force, in pounds, is used to seat each bullet - consistency being the name of the game.

I also have two decent gun belts from the states. When you've got to shoot, shoot. Don't talk. :)
