Just curious. Did somebody on this board actually try to build a Merlin like stabilizer?

There are a couple JR/Merlin style home built stabilizers here: http://www.homebuiltstabilizers.com/greyhandheld.htm


There are also a few others floating around on the web too.

No I built that, Garrett is just testing it in the picture on the right.


You obviously haven't seen my big lego Steadicam (http://www.homebuiltstabilizers.com/MembersRigs/FullRigs/mikkowilsonsplayerrig/index.htm). More discussion here (http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?t=50529).

Just found this old thread again. I am surprised I didn't write anything more here in the past. That big lego steadicam is great! Really good one Mikko!
