Video camera mount - doubleboost - 09-15-2013
Hi
Lads
I do like to play with my video camera and machines
Using a tripod gets in the way & I can not get the shots I want
I am going to fix this stainless pipe to the garage roof & hang the camera from it
Made a start on the mount today

Thank you in advance John, i appreciate how much trouble you guys who make good videos go to and i'm sure it must slow the job down having to make allowances for us lot !

John,
Nice camera boom you're building there. I know what you mean by the tripod getting in the way. I can never seem to get it where I want it to get the shot I'm aiming for. I've thought of making something that attaches to the floor joists above the lathe to mount the camera and the light to.

Well done, John! Now, we need a new video to test it out!

Looking good John
, like you say should be a lot simpler than working around a tripod, I look forward to seeing the first video from it. It looks like it will also cover both sides of the milling machine too, good work , hope it gives you the shots your after .Cheers Mick.
