LimpNoodle Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 I've built myself a new lure making bench. Now I just need to move all the stuff from the old bench to the new bench. Here's a picture of the bench with all my molds on the shelves. Of course most of them aren't going to stay there as I need room for hooks and such. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LimpNoodle Posted October 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 Yep. It will never look that good again. As a matter of fact it doesn't look like that now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slammingjack Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 I like it! But I think it needs more molds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW Lures Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 I had time to really look at your work bench. I thought I had some molds but dang. You got me by a few + a few. LOL I really got to make some room for painting bench with a booth. Dale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimpNoodle Posted October 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) Here's the bench set up to actually do some work. The other molds are in baskets stacked to the left of the bench. I also need to clear out the area to the left of the pot. That's where I dump the hot stuff. I noticed that the shelves have a bit of droop in them. I'll have to cut some 2x3 braces for the middle of the shelves. I guess a 6' long shelf build with 2x3 and 3/4" plywood can only support so much weight before it begins to deform.

BLT Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 That second pic looks much better. I could not find anything if it was as neat as the first pic lol. I call my area an organized cluster. Boy, some of you guys have a lot of molds! If I have a mold that doesn't get used for 2 years, off to Craigslist it goes. Have a Wobblehead that may soon be in route. Used it 3 times, no one had interest in those jigs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimpNoodle Posted October 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I actually have a bunch of molds I hardly ever use and really don't have any use for. One of these days I'll get around to thinning the herd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldfart9999 Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Nice looking bench, the support for the middle shelf should be a 2x4 and I think you need 2 benches, 1 for storage the other to work on.LOL Rodney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimpNoodle Posted October 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Actually there's another bench right behind that one. Just finished the top. Going to build the shelves this weekend,health permitting. It's going to be my temporary reloading bench for now. I'll soon start framing in a workshop in my metal building. The building is 30' x 60' and is where I keep my boat and truck. Going to frame in a 8' x 24' section for a climate controlled workshop. When it's done I plan on 18' of bench for lure building and 18' for reloading with around 10' of general space workbench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apdriver Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Sounds like that will be a very nice size work area and the climate control is a big plus. That can solve all manner of problems. Drives the expense up a little though but wished my shop was the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of these days I'll get around to thinning the herd. I just noticed in your pic your RCBS pot has a bracket on it to help hold the mold. Got mine used and that didn't come with it. I WANT ONE lol. Would be so nice for the 8oz. molds. I can probably make the bar and get split rings to make one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
