cheap cjeap skater

ok .....not a real skater but the effect is the same and it takes about 20 min to make.
1 piece of wood......i used fiberglass board
2 skate board trucks with wheels (new wheels much better)
4 bolts
2 locknuts
2 nuts with nob
1 big nut for tripod head

drill and bolt each truck with lock nuts (tight)
in the opposite corner of the truck drill through as you keep turning the truck to make the curve that the trucks will follow

then bolt through with bolt and nut with nob

Find the center of the board and drill a big hole fot the tripod

done.

makes nice curve pans, straight dolly moves, almost free, you can ride it if you have to!!
