We have used the Future Automation lifts, they're very accurate, very
reliable and VERY expensive!!

Cut into a piece of furniture, it returns the top panel so precisely that
you almost can't see the join.

Doesn't look as though they have a website up and running yet, but I found
this info on one of our competitor's - sorry fellow AV specialist's - site
which gives an idea of how they work. They do ones which lift or swivel or
both (or you may choose to hang the plasma on the wall and buy a new car or
house!!)

How very strange - I am just looking at exactly this issue so if you do find
something let me know. I was deliberating between four options...

1) a standard TV lift and the plasma on top using the ordinary desktop stand
secured in some way.
2) as above but using the rear (wall) mounting bracket.
3) some form of lift using the spiral type rods / gears if you know what I
mean. The ones that are a long pole with a gradual spiral gearing cut down
their length. Around the rod sits a sleeve that rises and falls as the rod
is rotated. This would attach to the rear wall mounting bracket. This is my
favourite option.
4) Some form of metal wire support and pulley arrangement (not very
serious).

I would actually like my plasma to come up out of the floor (I have space
below) but would settle for rising from inside or behind some piece of
furniture say an oak chest.
