Bench orientation

on: December 09, 2006, 01:05:33 PM

Has it ever happened to you? You sit at the bench, you want to make it higher (or lower, fancy yourself) and you start rolling the knob, just to find, invariably, that you should have been doing it in the opposite direction.

Do you have an opinion about what is right, standard or most intuitive?
