Hiding a tv
I saw in a magazine,—the latest French Country, page 49–a picture of a bedroom with a trunk at the end of the bed. The descriptions said the trunk hid the TV. Any one know how this is done?

Hi Ginger, maybe it is on a lift that they can lower when not being used? Here's a link with some ideas for you

You need a tv lift mechanism for the tv and cabinet.
This is instructions for building a tv cabinet with a lift mechanism. But the mechanism can be adapted to any cabinet based on the size of the tv.

You can buy tv lift mechanisms form Amazon. Just need one that fits the size and weight of the tv and cabinet

Keep in mind that if you do install the TV inside the trunk at the foot of the bed, you may need to purchase extra long wires or plugs so that everything connects to the nearest wall outlets.
Teyh must have used the trunk to create a lift cabinet. Sounds like a great project!
Agreed with a tv lift
It is most likely something that rises when in use and then hides away when not watching it.
Yup, that's a lift. They used a product like this: https://www.amazon.com/ECO-WORTHY-Automations-Motorized-Vertical-Control/dp/B01C6OSIMO/ref=asc_df_B01C6OSIMO/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=216591984952&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=3573124498444871812&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9004509&hvtargid=pla-354539395603&psc=1

It must have had a kind of tv bracket like you would use to put on the wall but it needs to extend up
It probably has a lift mechanism inside that raises and lowers the tv out of and into the box.
Yes! I agree with a TV lift.
