I like Urban Rednecks numbers.
I am 6'1", and have my xl650 mounted to my bench. No need to spend extra money for a strong mount.
The press is mounted about 36.5" or just at my waist. I stand infront of the machine while loading, and my movement with my arm is pretty smooth.
NOW, it will take some time to get use to the movement if you have never done it before. I thought I was getting the flu, my back muscles were so sore after the first time I used a press.:banghead:
My bench is approx 4" thick. It is 2 layers of 3/4" plywood separated by 1x3" Birch spacing. Very strong. I used 5" 1/4x20 bolts with big washers and nylock nuts.
be safe.
