Finally have this all done. I think I worked on this for about 6 weeks. I decided to start a new thread for the finished pictures. If anyone wanted to see pics of the build, you can go here. Build All of the drawer pulls are shotgun brass. 20 Ga on the pigeon holes and 12 Ga on the lower drawers. I would have rather used 10 Ga on the lowers but I don't have any and don't know of anyone that has any. I'm happy enough with the way it came out. Now I just need some shot, powder, and primers crazy
Here's the pics:

Great job! Question for you…how did you attach the shotgun brass? I’m thinking about using some as drawer pulls and was wondering if I needed to use a wooden dowel as filler to stabilize it or just attach straight up. Thanks.

Yea, I used high bass, cut the plastic down to the top of the brass and just used a piece of dowel rod with a hole though the middle. I used brass screws the hole to make it look like a primer.

I am filling much better. My kidneys are around 50% now and the doctor even said I could have a beer! Thanks for asking.

looks very nice and well built. Thanks for the ideas I'm needing to build a new bench myself but it will be much more primitive than your great looking piece of art. I'm short on space and have more than one press so was looking at a set up where the presses mount on pieced ot the bench top that is removable so they can be swapped out as well as have a flat filler block so I have a clean surface to work on guns and mount scopes. maybe an insert with vice as well.. Then a shelf where all the inserts slide into for storage aand places for all the dillion tool heads. Maybe I will get to it some day.
