DIY Tile cutter Slider

not yet finished camera slider.
Made from a cheap tile cutter. Will make a platform to screw onto a tripod, and will get longer poles.

what are the fibres in the track?

@pimpedoutjedi they are fibres from material to go between the slider and poles, makes a big difference.

I'm all for diy using already existing stuff like this! I do it all the time. saves money and if tweaked right they can rally add something to a video.

I am constructing something similar with a ball and socket head. I am using the same tile cutter from B&Q and am using it on a project next month. Will display the results for you all.

By the way, great idea. I'm going to make one myself :)
