My wife has asked me to make her a sewing machine table with a machine lift in it. I have been told that the pneumatic lifts that Rockler among others sells tend to bounce. Does anyone know where I can get and electric lift similar to the ones that Koala uses in their cabinets?

The lift in my wife's Singer cabinet is pneumatic and it locks in securely when raised. It does need a slight lift by hand to ensure that it latches. Perhaps the others are similar.

Lee Valley Tools has one. This well-designed pneumatic lift has a load capacity of 40 lbs and uses a two-stage lifting mechanism (it stops half-way up so you can ensure your hands are clear).

I put one in for the wife. Electric lift. very smooth action. Got it from some outfit in Utah. So long ago I don't recall firm name. Try Google . WW
