Good day, all

The tool rest should be at a height that allows the edge to be presented
to the work in the proper orientation for the
intended cut. This will depend on the individual. Start near center,
perhaps a little above for scraping, perhaps a little
below for cutting or shearing. As the work gets small and the tool
projects further over the rest, raise or lower it more.
Eyeballing the initial setting is good enough.

Newbie question.
How do you judge what the height should be? Are their any rules for this?
