    Another good thing to know that is that there are different types of stainless steel and most consumer products use the crappiest version which is barely rust resistant (No steel is perfectly rust resistant but the better versions aren't likely to rust in a noticeable way unless exposed to constant salt water or high temperatures and/or oxygen concentrations).

I remember my old shop used to work with both 300 series and 400 series but I can't remember which one rusted almost as fast as regular steal. The better ones (from a rust resistance standpoint) tend to have higher concentrations of aluminum and/or other rare (ish) earth metals. They do tend to be softer though which is part of the reason why high carbon steal (not stainless) is still used in critical infrastructure (the other reason being that it cost less even with the extra precautions needed to protect it from the elements).

    Interesting to know of that change. I dealt with those legs in the video for "medical tables" that supported heavy and expensive medical equipment for over 10 years (but that was 5ish years ago), and none had gyro's. The ones I dealt with had built in limit switches for top and bottom "mechanical limit stops" and a external safety switch on the bottom of the table to prevent crushing anyone's seated legs when lowering. Was the exact same calibration steps the video shows. The "controller monitors current to each leg motor to determine "tilt" issues if one leg motor is working harder then the other. It's why the table would stop raising also in the video when they were calibrating the legs. The above average weight was drawing too much current and triggered a "stop command" incase it was crushing someone's hand. Note it will still hurt/do damage to soft human parts, DO NOT underestimate the power those legs have. I still have a pair of the 1st gen from a discarded table which I use for my own PC desk.

    Looks insanely awesome and no doubt a fair bit of time went into designing this project, but I do feel like this could have been accomplished for significantly cheaper by *NOT* using massive Al billets. They could probably have saved significant material and machining costs by replacing certain pieces with sheet/plate aluminium and smaller machined billet sections, then tig welded sections together. Even the welds could be machined back if you were concerned by the aesthetics, as this isn't exactly a mission critical component with high structural loading. Also, you may want to apply some sort of transparent film coating (or use polymer washers) to the stainless bolts, or you will probably end up with some galvanic corrosion and/or discoloration between the aluminium and stainless components. PS. if anyone reading this ever installs a solar array on the roof of their house, I *highly* suggest you apply an anti-seize to the bolts (usually stainless) which are in the hold-down clamps... otherwise a few years (eg. 5+) you'll likely find you won't be able to undo the bolts (ie. shear off the heads, or round out the internal profile) if you need to remove panels for access to your roof space!
