Reloading Stand: No shake, rattle or roll

So, this weekend I fixed another issue that had been bugging me for a while.  For my reloading area I have a wooden bench that was sturdy but would still flex under the pressure of the press when cranked.  I see this issue often on Youtube videos and it leads to spilled powder and cases…
