DIY KronoX Camera Slider - $22

Описание: This is part one demonstrating the construction of the slider and information you will need to know. Part two is simply the test footage shot using the slider along with an audio test of how much sound this design may or may not produce. This is my own design that I developed with the idea that I wanted a light weight, good looking product that was cheap to make, easy to build, and produced low noise tolerances. This design does not use felt but instead I have utilized the sliding feet you can purchase for moving furniture around.

Here is the Demo video:

Something I forgot to add is that my broom sticks have small grooves on the outside. I intentionally chose this because my theory is that the grooves will create lens surface tension on the sliders and would create less friction and therefor less noise. One other thing, in the top 90 degree elbows where the broom enters I had cut small pieces of the 3/4 inch PVC pressure pipe to simply give the broom less room to move.

Parts You will Need:
1 - 10ft 3/4inch PVC
2 - 3/4inch Cross Pieces
4 - 90 degree elbows
4 - slip caps
4 - 45 degree elbows
8 - Tee's

Cut sizes of PVC:
12 - 1 5/8 inch pieces
2 - 41 1/4 inch pieces
2 - 2 1/2 inch pieces
4 - 2 3/8 inch pieces

Other Parts:
2 - $1.75 broom's from family dollar (or somewhere with cheap brooms, lengths may vary and you will have to adjust the length of your two 3/4 inch long pieces of PVC.)
1 - eight pack of 1 inch sliding feet with sticky pads from Dollar Tree.
14 - 1 inch screws
1 - Cheap walmart cutting board.

Cut sizes of other parts:
1 - 6 inch x 6 inch poly cutting board piece
1 - 8 1/2 inch x 5 inch poly cutting board piece
2 - Cut broom sticks to final length of 42 1/4 inch

Optional:
-Armor All - Something I did as of 7-4-11 is apply this to the broom sticks and buff it in really well. The mount now slides Extremely well!
-Poly fill
-3/4" Pressure Pipe. I found this at Menards and not at Home Depot. I says its used for irrigation and drinking water.

This entire project without the optional parts should only cost about $20 but I list it at $22 to allow for price variance. I hope this becomes a popular DIY for people and would love to hear feedback on your build. Let me know how it handles on your tripod. I only have a super cheapo tripod that cannot support much weight, so I will be making my own diy tripod soon as well to handle anything I put on it. Please like the video and subscribe.
