New build help needed

[JAZZCNC]

Following Dean's drawings I finalized the base design

Now don't go blaming me I had nothing to do with it. . .

What height from ground to top rails is recommended?

No fixed height really but the machine I showed is 950mm. Work out the height you want the bed and how much clearence you need and you'll get to the figure you need.

The height of the bed will come down to ergonomics. The higher it is the more difficult it will be to load heavy material onto. As the same time, too low will make changing the cutters a bit difficult.

My preference would be to make the bed around desk height. The Americans say a typical desk height is 29" so 1metre would be just about right.
