Default Reloading press mounting ideas?

My wife is a wonderful woman. After these many (33) years of single-stage reloading, she decided that I needed progressive press. The long and the short of it is that a new Hornady LnL AP arrived last week. Since Saturday Ive been to sick with the flu and/or virus do much more than lie on the couch or bed. Now that I've managed to return to the land of the living, I'm considering how to mount my press for reloading. I have a nice heavy large desk that I plan to use. I cannot drill holes in it. So I figure to clamp a double layer of 3/4 inch plywood on top of the desk using C-clamps. I can let the plywood project over the edge of the desk by 6-8 inches. I can then drill holes in the plywood to bolt down the press. The most obvious plan would be to bolt the press to the plywood and operate it while sitting in a chair. I am wondering if it would be better to mount the press so that I could operate it while standing up? To do that is there some sort of metal plate available that I could use? Thoughts and suggestions will be appreciated. Sincerely. brucev.
