My Glider Has Feet!

My friend Dan Kury made these for me. If you remember in a previous video, I HAD intended on marketing gliders a while back, but the reason I gave up was I couldn't get the feet idea I had to work. So, I decided to just share where I got my stuff from with all of you. Well, my friend Dan got one of these and decided to make some feet. They are GREAT!

But, I needed to make them non-skid on slick surfaces, so I added some gripping material to the bottom and it works great. This video shows off the feet, me installing the gripping stuff, and shows the glider in action with the feet installed.

Enjoy.

where did you get that slider from..

[musichistorynut]

@lvlik9 I made it (or, rather, I ordered the parts and modified them so I could use them with a camera) See some of my other vids and you'll see two that specifically talk about my glider system. See these videos (copy and paste the names into the search field in YouTube): Z2KEhMaxtP4 and also O227CKCP4k8

Thanks for watching and commenting!

@weaponeer They make SUCH a difference! It's amazing how you differently you plan shots in your head when you have one of these - it gives you so many more options.

@musichistorynut - slider have been kicking my butt (not having one). I have a dolly, but it's not good for slider shots. So, I started building a slider using skateboard wheels (more of a Micro Dolly), so I can slide past or around an object. wee will see if it works out
