Not a common 'reloading' balance there. Mettler?

I've got the same secret weapon as J-gray, mount the presses on an inside corner.
Did that the first time inside a broom closet, WICKED strong, so when I built two 2x4 rollaways I did the same thing, a corner section that bolts the rollaways together. An inside diagonal wins you massive strength.

Good eye.

Mettler AM100 lab balance. Was once used in our penicillin lab, so couldn't be used in our normal operations.

Strangely enough, I have another Mettler balance in the basement from when our site closed. It's a newer model (AG400, I think), but it's considerably larger. As you can see, my bench top isn't huge (even without Sarge).


I think I get a little obsessive when I try to get my loads down to 0.01grain...

I used a Seville bench from SAMs. I put a metal plate under the press to avoid splitting the wood. It has worked out well.
