Let's get you moving in the right direction with this bench bleed!!!! "GRAVITY" is your friend!!
Items to mount- From highest to lowest items:
master reservoir(not so high you can't re-fill it)
master cylinder
straighten brake line as much as possible- think like you're draining the system out the caliper
caliper with the bleeder nipple(pointing up) being the highest point on the caliper(the caliper should be near the floor)

You're backwards with the set-up(bench top) you have in the pic's and the caliper is still just like it was on the buggy- the bleeder nipple has to be highest point for the air to get pushed out of the bleeder nipple.
Making sense???
