Hi guys. Ive been in the building industry most of my life, ive worked with granite countertop fabricators, ive installed granit tops, and it a back breaker.
One thing i never thought of is reloading press mounting.
Im in a situation where im building a desk / reloading area. Im was contemplating using a removable press mount but they look ugly i see no benefit.
Has anyone drilled holes thru there granite top to mount a press? Will the granite crack and break? Does it need to be reinforced durring fabrication.
Ive seen guys inlay and epoxy bar stock on the underside of granite tops to reinforce gaps like work station area for chairs, or they will reinforce the underside with epoxy and fiberglass mesh.
My wife wants all matching tops in the house and this is one of them.
Could be a nice surface for a reloading bench. I suppose
Has any one bit the bullet ,drilled the holes and mounted press? How has your granite held up?.
Thanks for any reply in advance. Did you have it reinforced?
I would be better off talking to the fabricator. But i want to hear from some one who has doen it.
