"I am new to woodturning. I have
purchased a used Woodfast, 20 x 16 lathe. It needs a base or stand.
My question is, how do I determine the correct spindle height as it
relates to me?"

Response
As a general rule you'll have the spindle at a
comfortable height if you stand upright, bend your arm at the
elbow, and have someone measure from your elbow to the floor. Make
that the height from the floor to the lathe spindle.
Thank you for
your question.
