Hydraulic lifting mechanism for table

Greetings!

I am designing/building a work table (30" x 60"). The top surface needs to be lowered to coffee table height while retaining the ability to be raised to 42" height.

Does anyone have any info on hydraulic and/or electric gizmo that will allow me to make this a reality? Top surface weight to be supported will be 400 lbs or lower.

Thank you for your review of this post and due consideration.

I have a hydraulic table lift that is aprox 24 x 30 which lifts capacity of aprox 800 lbs. you could simply add the top size you prefer to make a nice work table. see WWW.TOOLCENTRAL.COM

Thank you for the information.

I reviewed the site - were you referring to the transmission lift? Could not find anything that was 800 lbs (not that I need that weight bearing capacity!) with the dimensions listed.

Besides the "one better," what a site! decent prices! vast selection!
