The accepted standard is to place the center of the spindle at the height of your elbow above the floor with your arm loosely at your side.

Oh no! I measured and it is best to mount it 4" higher to account for all the woodchips you'll soon be standing on.

You need more suction on that dust collector.

Man...I have a ways to go before getting this shop completed. Made the classic mistake of trying to hang 3/8" sheet rock on the ceiling. Sagged perciptively; took it all down.
I hope to be turning by early February...Looks like I'll be ready just in time for Plug Fest.

Thanks,,, Sounds like you methodically planned out the right stuff for your shop long before you started banging nails,,,,,
I used plywood instead of sheet rock in my shop,,,, it was a little bit of a pain but worth it and only $9 a sheet and was able to use the same cutout tool for the outlet boxes,, Now I don't worry about putting holes in it,,,,
Value that time with your dad,,, 
and keep the progress pictures coming,,,, I wish I had done that when I did mine,,,

Progress
Getting there...We are slow as hell, but I'm having a great time building the shop with my dad.
Of course, this morphed into creation of a separate rod-building room, as well as heavy duty shelving installation, etc.
Looks like it might be all done around Plugfest.

Glad you are having the chance, That time is not replaceable,,,,,,, and is incredibly special
Last spring and summer I was able to do the same,,,, Had huge plans to finish and build some plugs and make my first ever Plug fest,,,..
Unfortunately all my winter plans for building plugs and life priorities changed due to my dads health,,,
Keep those pics coming,,,

I know, tell me about it. I've been laying the laminate floor all day. Finish that tomorrow, cut & stain baseboard, touch-up paint. Install baseboard Sunday, equipment back in, rig dust collection...Finally start building again.
