Are you planning on sitting and working or stand and work. I generally stand and my bench is 38" and my presses mounted on a 2" thick block of wood that I can bolt and unbolt from the bench to put another press or tool in it's place. If you are standing my rule is to bend my elbow and hold my hand and forearm parallel to the floor and measure for height. It's higher than most peoples loading benches but I'm the only one using it and that is my comfort height. You have to decide what works best for you and not what we prefer because we are all different.
