Hey I am working on building a mobile bandsawmill. I need to know the deck hights of a few brands to know what to set it at. Right now I am looking at 30-32" is this higher than most or is it a good elevation to work off of. 
Thanks in advance y'all

keep it low, maybe 24" a little more, that should work,
only have a few chain saws I'm not suppose to use, but will at times, one dog Dolly, pretty good dog, just not sure what for yet,  working on getting the gardening back in order, and kinda thinking on maybe a small bbq bizz,  thinking about it,

A little above your knee whatever that works out to be. Many times the axle and tires you have will determine the exact hight. Frank C.

I built a frame so I can put an axle under mine to move it. I found it easier to use with it on the ground.
I seem to spend a lot of time going back and forth around the mill setting up and/or removing cut boards.
Low makes loading logs easier too.
My push bar is the perfect height like this.
