Press risers. What do we like, store bought or homebrew?
I want to add some height to my old RCBS A2 before I finish depriming about 10 gallons of .30-'06 GI cases.
Inline Fab makes a riser for the A2 that will cost me $95 + tax and shipping.
Lyman makes (in China as I understand) a "universal" riser that is around $75.
Any other store bought options I may not have located yet?
Anybody have plans for a decent homebrew unit that is a little nicer than a bunch of 2x6 scraps held together with deck screws?This message has been edited. Last edited by: M1Garandy,

I have 3 InLine risers. Totally worth it to me.

I just built my bench high enough that it's comfortable to stand at, so I didn't need a riser, but I'll cast a vote for the Inline Fabrication mount just on my experience with their other products alone. I've never bought anything from them that I've been unhappy with.

This. The quick change plates are very handy. I have my Dillon Super Swage on one, as well as my single stage and progressive presses.

For the time being, I took $10 in scrap 2x6, a couple of T-nuts, some deck screws and a pair of 5/16 bolts and built myself a riser.
That'll get me through what I'm doing at the moment while I contemplate spending actual money.
