Linear actuated Floating canopy lift.
I've learned a ton on this forum so I figured I'd share my latest project for a linear actuated canopy lift. Main structure is made of 1.5" 80/20 aluminum.
 Here are some of the linear bearing guides  The 20" stroke 225lb linear actuator  All the misc parts and fasteners connected   Installing the 2x4 and 1x10 backing  Finally installed and testing!  And finally with the stand in place    And some videos of the test https://youtu.be/I7JukTS78Zs https://youtu.be/08HRmmtJsO0 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk |

Cool beans! Can you flesh out what you're doing with it?
