Reloading and or casting bench caster options

[James8719]

Looks good! If you have access to or can get a piece of steel or sheet metal to cover the wood top, it would be a convenient add for clean up and accident purposes! Spilled lead on wood is a pain in the arse!

Lol, Thank, will be looking into that next week

With a rolled upward edge to keep it from spilling into your lap.

Thanks, have been trying to think of something of that would work well without incurring a bunch more expense. Something like a large cookie sheet with very low edges might work ok. Any ideas would be appreciated

[James8719]

You could use the sheet metal from an old washer, dryer, refrigerator etc.
   No molten lead in the lap is always a good thing! My casting is done while standing!

[Kenk]

I stand as well, so that should minimize that aspect

[oldman10mm]

Scrapped furnaces and ducting could provide large/flexible/lightweight pieces of sheet metal.

Thanks oldman10mm, will contact our heating and cooling guy

how's the bench working out ?

[Kenk]

Now that I?ve shortened the height a bit, and things are warming up, it?s working well, just need more time for stuff like this
