I was thinking of making a pepper's ghost and wanted to wire a dimmer that would both bring up one light while also bringing down the other light all with one knob. Is there a way to wire this? Thanks.

I made one in the 70's and just used a pully system between 2 dimmers. Just cross the belt with the pulleys and when you turn one dimmer down, the other will turn up. I hope I explained this OK. This method did away with the wiring problem for me.

Why not just mount two of these side by side and turn one upside down.

Wish they had those slide switches when I made mine. Good Idea Eldon.
