Susan, there is a lift hinge type of thingy you can buy to keep toy chest tops 
open, it's standard hardware.

  Subject: [GSAS-Member] Found! 8' flourescent light fixture


  Some building was remolding, and I got an 8' light fixture out of the trash.
  It has a "rapid start ballast" for four 4' lights. This isn't the same as an
  "electronic" ballast, is it? I think the "tombstones" are for T-10 or T-8
  bulbs. (Why is it called "T", tombstone? What does 12, 10, and 8 mean?)
  Also, I was wondering if there was some kind of shock or strut or whatever
  to make life easier for when I open the lid of the oak canopy top. It weighs
  a ton, and it doesn't stay open, so I have to prop something in there. I
  worked on a 300 gallon at a CWU, and they had something for their canopy
  lid, maybe like what a screen door has, and it closed slowly. I can't
  remember how it stayed open.
