Why not get a 'drafting' chair? These chairs will adjust in height to let you sit comfortably sit at your higher desk.

Why not just make a desk at standing working height and get an adjustable chair with integral footrest that reaches. Most electronic workshops are kitted out that way.

How about a hydraulic pump? like in the ancient dental chairs?
Or perhaps you could buy a used hospital bed?

Sorry if I am thinking out of the box a little but my idea is to find a used (or new) electric chair, the kind that helps the elderly stand up.

I would take those mechanics out of the chair and install a computer desk to them.

I like this idea because it would be extremely strong, versatile (height adjusting) and push button or remote controlled.

I like the idea of the tall desk and the height adjustable chair, as much as the pneumatic chairs.

Certainly the mechanisms of pneumatic chairs might be offered in a pre-production form, that you could adapt to a desk, but would still involve operating the mechanisms at different points at the same time, or modifying multiples to be singularly functional. The intent should be the stability of any table/desk, with less worry about a chair specifically designed.

Seeing the desk mechanisms as more tedious and complicated to construct, I'd probably go with the tall chair, allowing the desk to remain at a comfortable standing height.

Obviously the alternatives could be holes/pins, and manual adjusting.

Completely off topic, but you nudged me. Front load Washers and Dryers this year, are finally being offered with Pedestal stands, to raise their height.
