Custom automated cantilevered desk

Cello designed this automated, cantilevered desk for a project with a multi-use space that needed a large desk. The requirement was for a 72"x40" desktop that would fold into the wall when not in use, and not have any legs when in use!

The design load in motion is 50 lbs at the center of gravity (10 lbs above the expected finish weight). The design load in the deployed (down) position is 100 lbs overall (without significant deflection), or around 30 lbs at the end. 50 lbs at the end causes 3/4" deflection. It is safe from any damage with an end load up to 150 lbs (above which the fine adjustments can slip).
