Would you please share some more information about your new TV cabinet, especially the TV Lift?
 
Thank you,

Don't know if anyone responded but FWIW here is what we did in our SOB.

We took a sofa out of our Alpine Coach and installed a cabinet with a fireplace and 46 inch TV on a lift.  Purchased from Nexus21.  we used a dual lift like the one here.  Heavyweight TV Lift | For TV's up to 200 Pounds - Nexus 21 (https://www.tvlift.com/tv-lifts/pop-up-tv-lifts/model-dl-50/)

We used a dual lift because of the movement of the coach.  It has been trouble free for 6 years and is extremely quiet.  Pretty much undetectable unless you are really listening for it.  Usually the cord moving upward makes the only noise that is heard.  Auto stop for height, set just once when installed.  Not the cheapest, but it sure works well.  Picture attached was before complete completion. It rises up and completely blocks a passenger side window.

I would love one of those.  Put it behind a desk with two Lazy Boy chairs like Chris did.  Hooked into a good sound system and I might start watching more TV.

I've been doing woodworking  for nearly my whole life-- Had an upholstery shop 30 years ago, still remember some of it!!
DW says I do pretty good work just not enough of it!! But she still lets me hang around.
