Gee, if you move the cursor back to the left, the thing goes down
pretty fast, too.

Neat trick! I could have saved a lot of time by doing that!

How do you really get it down with some ability to
stop where you want it?

The valve is controllable. I can lower the table at just about any
rate to any position I like by setting the valve appropriately.
I have a throttle cable from a lawn mower coupled to the valve for
remote control, so I don't have to squat down to the jack to
operate it.
