Hendo 933 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 OK, I just thought I'd put this out there for y'all. I've been looking for a cover for my press pretty much from the moment I bolted it to my bench. Sewing isn't really in my wheelhouse, I can do it if I have to, but it's about as good looking as my dancing while drunk. I took a chance a bought a cheap blender cover on Amazon and it worked out reasonably well. It even fits over my Inline Fab handle. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Abilene, SASS # 27489 1,353 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Looks good. For my new to me 550 I just used the plastic cover from a new bed pillow. It's not quite as purty as yours. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DeaconKC 2,208 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I bought some felt squares at Hobby Lobby and used a hot glue gun to make the covers for my Dillon 550 and tool heads. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Frontier Lone Rider 44 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I bought the Dillon cover for my 550, but quit using it and the 550. I will try what you are showing on my two Hornadys. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Too Tall Bob 1,313 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Why don’t you just use a pillow case? They work just fine on my MECs and 550s and they are very economically viable(cheap). 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They work just fine on my MECs and 550s and they are very economically viable(cheap). I probably coulda (I honestly didn't think of it). A trash bag would've probably worked to, but I might be concerned about trapping condensation or some such. I'm sorta OCD about some things and this has a purposeful, finished look to it. I already had some stuff in the Amazon cart and I just kinda hit on the idea. It was only 8 bucks, so I rolled the dice. Beside, knowing my luck, I would have grabbed what I thought was an old pillow case and it would have actually been part of a favorite set that Mrs. Hendo would kill me for. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
