I will soon (hopefully) be building a new shop, and I have an idea, I'd like
to implement.

Remember those old typing desks? Every office had the secretary's desk with
a type of swing arm that would allow the typewriter to be pushed down and
then slide inside the desk.

I'd like to locate some of those "arms" if possible. My idea is to use them
to allow storage of benchgrinder, buffers, (maybe even the dovetail jig!!)
inside the cabinets, and then swing them out and up, as required.

Anyone have any guesses where I can find them?

James...
Who is not even sure they'd work, but seems worth a try...
