    Eye height is great but the only thing is how well your shoulder stands up to reaching up high when bringing press down all the time

    I think of it a bit like how not all motorcyclists opt for "ape hanger" handlebars on their bikes, if that makes sense

    Of course I'm gonna say the obvious thing that if you are handy with woodwork then tek screw together a setup where you can try different heights before you go for the final

    Also I generally recommend the inline fabrication stand set as you can keep a press locked down or change it out of it's station for other things like case trimmers etc
