Bought it and it's got some great stuff in there. It is time consuming and a pain in the @ss if you dont have a machine shop (really just need a precision drill press), and finding all the parts took me all over L.A. to almost every Home Depot, Lowes, and OSH.

I have a 16' crane/jib, a full platform dolly, a mini dolly, a steadi-sled, and a car mount (and I think maybe some other things I cant remember right now) and they all work very well.

If I had it to do again, I would either just spend a fortune on commercial products or shoot myself. (I dont have the patience for extended DIY work. My ADHD overwhelms me.

Loved the book.. can't say enough about the author, Dan..

I wrote him, from the email listed in his book.. asking some techical questions... and he wrote back within a couple of days. We corresponded several times since, he even offered alternative ways to get things done in the book, if I couldn't find the parts as they were listed.

Incredibly helpful guy, I would buy 10 books if he wrote them, just to support someone like him who truly wants to see people succeed.

I loved it.

Got it. Dig it. Still need to build more stuff from it. I've done the dolly and plumbing-pipe jib (which works surprisingly well).
 
I haven't built anything from it yet, but that book has already paid for itself just by explaining and showing how these devices work. Definitely worth the price.
