Me, my back and I!

My knuckles are at counter top level, like pocket height

Wow! That still may be too low Andy, I can only speak from my experience but personally I find the table need to be kinda half way up my forearm to be comfortable.
I know this cos I’ve built dozens and dozens of tables over the last 3-4 years.

Bloody that’s crazy high for me mate, 1050 - 1100 high! Measure your table tomorrow for me see what that’s like

Mine is 820mm 10mm lower than the Raimondi BM180 it’s waist height.
I’m only 5’8” so you’re around 200mm taller, so a metre will probably be very close.

So really I need to be looking at raising the table by around 250 - 300, that’s significant!

Andy you’d be better off with a couple of tressels and some scaffolding boards by the sound of it.

Andy two Astro work stands with a heavy piece of ply as a top might suit you better, they can fold out to 40inches in height and are easy to fold away and store.

Both look alright, I can just see it being a pain to set up, for some days I might only make a couple of cuts on there ? And do you not end up with a warped ply top rocking about ?

It wouldn’t warp or rock if you had 2-3 inch thick pieces of ply screwed together, the top would be too heavy.
