Thank You SincoTC
That should cover it, for a fix height 40 in or 1,575 mm for a key board.

RE: Table Working Height

You might find some  real life examples - try them out - and measure what works best.

Something adjustable would be nice.  Some people are 6'-4'' and some are 5'-2''.  Big difference.

 

RE: Table Working Height

For many years, I stood or used a high stool at a classic four- poster drafting table.

When I transitioned to computers, I just put the keyboard on the table, and cantilevered the monitor maybe 10" above that on a little platform built of plywood and aluminum pipe.

Comfortable enough for many full days of programming.
