Agree

Question tho.... if the height was say 48" would that
be too uncomfortable as a stand up desk you think?



Not for gluing, or fiddly work, but it's too high for
hammering and sawing by hand.

Seriously, set a plank at the height you're
considering, and mime the things you
expect to be doing. If it's too high, that
will be obvious.
