Skin-on-Frame: Placing the masik where?

I'm gathering info on building my first skin on frame and trying to figure out sizing it properly (especially the cockpit area). As part of this, where do you like your masik relative to the upper end of your knee caps? Is it just an inch or so above the knee caps? Or do you put it closer to the mid-point on your upper leg? I suppose that would be somewhat based on individual preference, or am I wrong on this?

Thanks!
