How to start

[Nikon1975]

One question: as it is clear that I need a different stand for the mill, I was thinking to build something also to add some weight. I now have the mill on an old dining table and I use it sitting. I see that most operator use the machine while standing. What to you think the height of the stand should be to work safe and comfortably ?

Also I understand the short leaves story, but how do you deal with hot chips landing on your arms ?
