I am wondering exactly what is considered to be the ideal height of a lathe in relation to my height. I have been using a shopsmith and it is fairly low. I just bought a jet mini lathe and it is currently sitting on my benchtop and that seems a bit high. I am sure there is some formula, but I cannot find it. Of course it would have to be whatever works for the person, but thought maybe I could get a good starting point from you experts.
