Hi Richard,
I need something that can be easily adjusted as I have a 2lb. weight restriction right now for lifting. My coffee cup weighs more than that! Doc's don't want me doing any actions involving twisting, lifting, or exceeding the normal range of movement. Something I have to be taught (movement retraining).
Making my own is out of the question, but your suggestions on wood and the availability of a high quality but affordable cost make sense. I know a carpenter but he would need coaching and plans (and is quite ornery right now).
I need some help to understand this part of your message:
"Bevel gears operating Acme-thread screws have been the ultimate refinement in easel lift mechanisms for over a century. They are positive, reliable, infinitely adjustable and easy to operate. . . but such hardware is expensive."
Where and in what products is this system available? You can pm me if you wish. I don't work super large although I would like to. The largest would be 60"x80".
Thank you for your feedback,
Jean
