I make the standard custom tables I make adjustible to 35"+. I want to know what the commercial bed height is.

Yea, it was a slight contradiction. AND?

I make my tables adjustable to 35" because it is standard. I can see why the 35" working height, but wonder if lower might be better on the back.

Generally speaking, higher is better, because the user doesn't have to bend over, therefore it is easier on the back. Lower if the user needs to be able to reach to the middle of the table, or if lifting heavy items to the tabletop are necessary.

I think it depends on the size of the parts. Our 4x10 router at work is only 30", maybe less. It would be harder to load large sheets higher. But for a small machine, as was mentioned, you might want it higher so you bend over less.Originally Posted by Madclicker

Mine is about 35 inches and i love it at this height (first table and still building). I stood by my computer desk and used that as a reference before desigining and building the table. I also considered forklift loading, gantry height and other stuff. Theres lots of other factors too i guess. I think really heavy industrial tables are lower (from what I see in pics).
