This set up looks amazing, the best DIY steadycam I've seen. One question, does the flashlight just screw straight onto ballhead? Or is there a certain technique? Or even a certain type of flashlight?
I live in the USA, where do I purchase the parts to make my own RIG?
Ballhead$ ?... Flashlight Torch$ ?... 2 Aluminum Square Frames$ ?... Copper Tube Pipe (how long is this?)... AND... Is there any sawing involved at all?
Hi great video and amazing shots at the end. How did you decide the amount of weights to add as counterbalance weights? Do you have to balance off the weight of the camera?
piokiyo, can you provide input on the placement of the gimbal (measurements) and why you chose the 8' and 10' inch lengths for the vertical and bottom pieces? did you try other lengths? thx
Looks nice though I've had too much trouble trying to put similar steadycams together. I've been very happy using my Cam Caddie SCorpion, it's very effective helping me capture smooth shots..
Great!

I love the build but it seems a little on the pricy side for DIY. How much did it run you?

Great idea... but one of the WORST HOW TOs I've ever seen. You would fail a communications course in College. Thanks for sharing.
