Finishing up a stand for my new tube bender, was wondering what a comfortable working ehight is for the stand. What is the height of the factory Pro Model stand? I'll be using the bend bar for now until I get the scratch for the hydro.

Moved to general - should get more exposure for a better answer here

first off i would have to ask how tall are you me being 6' i like my benches at around 36"-38" high

I'm 6', bender tube height is 43", works great.

mine is hip height, that way it hurts like a bitch when you run into it. works good...can put my weight behind the cheater to bend 2" with just a little sweat. Too high, and you can't PULL as hard on the cheater...too low, your back will ache. Mine is in a reciever bolted to the cement...so I made the stand too high, and cut it down till it worked right for me.

I'm 6'3". I'm curious as to how tall the Pro Model Bender stand is from plate to plate without the bender mounted. I figured about 38" would be a comfortable working height for the stand, with the bender mounted it would be around 44".

Oops- forgot about that option, I just push a button and watch the tube swing around. :flipoff2:
