I think this is a great "topic" for Gen Woodworking and am appreciative of the time Stephen took to pass along the info. I just noticed the thread tonight as it moved back to the top of the list. The exitement of the original poster is wonderful to see, reminds me of a few new tools or jigs especially I've gotten wound up about. I watched the info video linked from U-tube and the one part of the pool table video which discussed/demonstrated the powered lift used for loose tenon joinery.
As a proud recent upgrader to the bench dog lift with the steel insert table I'm in no danger of being in the market soon. I do plan on following the release and reviews of this new product. When on the market there may be a time when the thread becomes an ad but at present it represents the introduction of an entertaining and potentially helpful new topic. I would reject soundly the idea that there needs to be any limitation or obstruction to the thread continuing.
Thanks moderators. I say always err on the side of allowing access to information. I'm going over to take a look at Nixon's site at least to check on whether the DIY info is still available. Maybe I can McGiver up a motorized lift of my own with a old drill, some wire, and a head of cabbage.
