How to build a TV Lift cabinet using an off-the-shelf dresser drawers and an off-the-shelf TV Lift Kit from Firgelli Automations. You could easily spend many thousands of dollars on a custom built cabinet with TV Lift, but for about $500. You could spend more, depending on the ready-to-build furnature you buy, but ours was quite inexpensive.TV Lift Cabinet in under three hours - Link.

Hi Troy,
I just bought an actuator and the rest of the parts from Firgelli to build my own lift. My lift will be pretty unique however, and I was wondering if you had any suggestions before I begin. This lift will be a part of my tub deck in my master bathroom. The tub is a negative edge kholer Sok tub which actually has a reservoir which allows the main tub to overflow before recycling the water back into the tub. The tv and lift will be in a seperate cabinet, but once the tile is added will have a seamless look. What should I do if anything to "waterproof" the lift cabinet?
