Subject: Good Poor mans steadicamDate: Sun 26-Feb-2006, 15:17:57

Living in an Apartment doesn't allow me to have the tool based playground for building nifty toys. I have some friends who love to build new stuff, but I hate asking them to build something like a Steadicam when they are already loaning me their homes and cars for my film. So I bought a poor mans steadicam system off eBay.

Now this is not a suggestion to buy the unit, but If you have considered building your own, this design works the best. My DP has used numerous poor man SCU's and he has said this design was by far the single best.

Here is the link to my eBay auction for the unit I purchased.
