Hello,
I want to build a sawyers bench and think I'm going to use Tom Fidgen's design. I am going to make the top boards 1-3/4" instead of an 1". I want to be able to use holdfast if needed or bench dog so wanted it thick enough for those. Anyone have an idea how high this should be from the floor? I have tried setting up something around 20" high and that seems to high for me. I'm thinking about 18" because obviously the board on top would add at least 3/4" or more. I might even consider 17" knows this but any input would be appreciated greatly.
Thanks
John
