Hi there from a "yinzer" in the flesh!

Either way will work.  You'll find plenty of scrollers who use either method.  I think it depends on how comfortably you can work at the saw, whether on a bench or a stand.  Good ergonomics are important.  Consider all the factors at play; whether you are going to sit or stand, proper height, clearance for swinging larger pieces around, stability and vibration dampening, etc.
