Description

I love taking timelaps captures for video. Using a tripod is ok, but not creative enough. The camera is standing still, but I want it to MOVE. But that is easier said than done. THIS IS JUST FOR THOSE WHO ARE INTERESTED Made a dolly with tracks..... and the trick is the third track in the middle. Made by an old vacumcleaner hose. It has some nice notches. Added a vertical plate to the dolly and placed it into a notch. The result is that I can push the dolly forward and take a frame. Than I have to repeat that 250 times to make 10 sec of video. Did this make any sence???? Hope the result is worth the boring work, correction, not boring, I just love it. ............Better view in zoom mode........

Yikes You will have to live in the garden to do that LOL ! The sound of the click on the hose it countable, yes? so you can know exactly how far to go. YEAH YEAH, I am just guessing. Excellent way you placed the wheels on the pipes.
