Nice!
I wonder if a pair of air over hydraulic cylinders connected together would push both ends up at the same rate. As my Asian hydraulic cylinders cease to function, I get the AO ones. That leads to the question of lowering at the same time. Wondering on that one...
As another poster mentioned, I'd probably go to CL/offerup and wait a bit.

Maybe, but the weight at each end would need to be very nearly the same. The connected cylinders would both be pushed with balanced line pressure which would then exert equal force at each end. If one end is "lighter" it may move easier and faster, then eventually bind in the tube.
