Anyone at home that can help me out?

Odd request for ATOT...

As previous mentioned here:
http://forums.anandtech.com/me...y&keyword1=woodworkers
I built a small 4x3 table top that will sit inside an old exterior (now interior) window frame. I want to order the stools to sit at the table now, but I'm at work, and I don't know what height I need.

Can somebody take some rough measurements and see how high your kitchen table is compare to your chairs? or if you have a "bar stool" set-up in your kitchen take those measurements?

I don't want the table top to be too low/high compared to the seats as I hate that awkward feel.

Thanks.

My new countertop is about 37" too... does that 24" seem too low?
