I've thought about doing tracks, but I like to keep top smooth as possible when nothing is attached. Now my delima! If I did tracks then powder and other stuff can fall in them. Instead, I have holes with t-nuts on the underside that when empty thing fall on the floor. I could plug them from the bottom? I totally agree on "make it heavy" for a great stable platform!

A portion of my 9 foot steel Craftsman bench shown in picture. Dillon stays permanently mounted. MEC is mounted on plywood and attached with 1 bolt. The nut has teeth that dig in and holds from the bottom of the top. You can buy them at big box building supply stores. I have 3 other presses I can mount in the same manner. I have empty brass and hulls stored underneath. Subwoofer for the tunes.
