Good afternoon

My name is Juan and I was wondering about the height and measurements of the bench. The video doesn´t specify how hi or low should the bench be or how hi is the part where you rest your board. Where can I find this information specially if I am going to build the bench myself?

Thank you

Hi guys. I am totally new and setting up my work space. The video says to set the reference perpendicular to the viewing angle. How do I do this if the standing easel is right in front of me?
