    This was a great build. All the viewers who say it's sloppy and tatty, who cares, it does the job! And all the other DIY sliders on RUclips require top notch tools, this one, anyone can build without expensive tool kits, lathes, Mills, drills, tappers etc.. Well Done to the lad on a clever and simple design. Thank you

    @cryptology3975 11 лет назад

    Really glad your soldering skills aren't top notch. Soldering is scary for a lot of people, so seeing that it will work even though it isn't perfect, is really encouraging!

  • @nikko444

    That's a really cool decision witch eliminates weird step motors, controllers etc. imho it's the best decision to start your time lapse experiments with. Thank you!

    I find it annoying that people put up mean comment, it tells me that they are jealous that they didn't think of it first. Great design on a budget and it WORKS!! isn't that what we all want!

    Haven't tried it, however I believe night TL shots generally use a more complex setup which only moves the camera between shots and remains stationary while taking a frame.

    Been watching vids like yours for a long time.. and most designs have ups and downs... but your dolly design with the wheels inside is amazing!! Nice Vid!

    I use 3M double stick tape to mount a lot of things like micro switches and motors. You should try it some time and see how you like it.

  • @RetiredTechnician
    @RetiredTechnician 9 лет назад +1

    Nice rail setup and cool use of switches too, it's not a sloppy build its really creative well done man 👌

  • @robgipman1551
    @robgipman1551 10 лет назад +1

    Nice setup, would you mind making a wire drawing that is more clear when not connecting a wire to the frame.

    I am almost finished with building my version of your slider. Your video is most informative. The one part I don't understand is what you glued to the coupling nut that attaches to the motor. Could you provide a bit more insight into that part? Thanks.

  • @mihigyver
    @mihigyver 9 лет назад +2

    when i undrestand it right the motor stop when one of this both microswiches are pressed.. you can chanch it that one switch turns of when it gos to the left side and the other to right than you dont need to do that with the hand...

    Hi, you are an amazing designer. Wondering if you had worked out a a "night" time-lapse set up yet, where longer exposures can be utilized? I hope you use your existing slider and motorized set up on this video with just some electronic tweeking? Super Job, Thanks!

  • @jadenhamer1581

    Hi. Cool diy. I was wondering does this motorised dolly work even in vertical configuration?. If not vertical , does it work when kept at an angle ?. Was just sceptical about how much load the motor can take

    Question-But first, thank you for sharing your knowledge. Now for the question, “How do you control the stepper to motor to pause then after a second or two fire the DSLR (or other camera) to create the photos that will become frames of the time-lapse video? I would truly like the answer to this question. Perhaps you’ve already answered it or some Elise has. Would you point me in the right direction I’ve the answer. Thanks much! WLK

    Hi RCexperimental! What do you say on your ballhead? Is it sturdy enough when properly locked down? Should I buy one? I never had a ballhead mount.

  • @ryaneledesma
    @ryaneledesma 11 лет назад

    Is that motor strong enough to put the whole rig at an angle? It would be nice for it to be able to pull the camera upwards at an angle

  • @therealorberon
    @therealorberon 10 лет назад

    if you could spend more how would you spend to make the timelapse shots more stable and smoother. as it seems a wee bit shaky based on the video.

  • @christopherweaver2220
    @christopherweaver2220 10 лет назад

  • @dcecurtis
    @dcecurtis 11 лет назад

    You could probably add a potentiometer so that you can control the speed, you wouldn't have as much control as you would on a professional setup, but you would still be able to control the speed.

  • @CharlesHenrySanson

    Can you be more specific on the microswitches? I'm looking at online suppliers and they don't specifically say "unipolar bidirectional microswitches" in the description. Instead they say SPDT (single pole, double throw?) and give ratings like "0.6A,125VDC". Can you describe the microswitches in different terms?
