We have a shelf above the plaster bench at eye level. If no facebow is used we mount via a visual of the stick to the level shelf to the top member of the articulator to set the plane of occlusion.

Its a a pain in the ass not to have it at eye level and techs are lazy and do not like to bend down :)

Thats funny, when I have to spend a day in the model room, I love the part when I kneel down to check the plane, its like a load off for just a moment. And for that moment, you look like your working.

I should say I make a mark on a pencil with a marker to check each side of the stick- to clarify
