Small Jib Obtained

[NoNoob]

You may have seen these inexpensive jibs on eBay:

i bought one (through the auction) the other day.
$134.00 landed here.

Pretty nice rig.
I don't know if they sell them anymore.

Just what I was looking for. What head are you using with this?

What's the weight limit? that seems to be my biggest problem with the low cost jibs... they can't hold my system. My 8ft does, but technically it's over the limit, and I can feel the strain...

they claim is can hold upto a ten pound camera, but who knows.

I had my full rig (18 pounds) on a 2500 bucks ABC crane and it´s like driving a rubber boat on a syrup lake.

I made my own super rigid crane for under 200 Euros. It´s heavy - 35lbs without the 3pod - but it has the precission I want and I bet it could even lift a person without bending.

I will post pics soon in the DIY section.
