Great project! Thanks for taking us along as you explained your build. Lots of humour gold to be discovered! :)
That is so kind of you, thank you :)
I dont know why your channel did not blow up yet.
I think I need to put more cats in it, haha
It's a really really nice project and well executed. Final shots are amazing!
Thank you :)
This is fantastic, great work! The demo shots are amazing and I'm excited to check out the repo. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you :)
@@fuzzy4logic Looking forward to the next one! 🤩
You do awesome projects and fantastic videos about it. Thank you! Can't believe you don't have more subscribers...
Thank you Lars! That is so kind of you :D
Thank you so much for sharing all your files. I've saved this for very near future use!
you had my like with bonus cat footage
Really impressive design, and great results as well!
Thank you!
Great job!! It's amazing. Very smooth!!
Thank you!
Cool project 👍🏼 You are an inspiration and I will borrow some of your ideas as I’m so far is only in the planning phase for my project
Thank you so much! If you have any questions feel free to ask :)
Fantastic project! also thanks for sharing files.
Thanks :)
Tappware container 😂😂😂 Nice!
Next level!
love it!
this is absolutely amazing! hats off! do you plan to release the STL files and/or the code? I'd love to give this a try! thanks again for sharing!
Thank you! I've linked my gitlab repo in the description.
@@fuzzy4logic thank you very much!!
Cool project. I have looked at the STL files. I have been unable to find any details upon any bearings used. Do you just use a large ring bearing? Also do you have sizes of the slip ring
great content, sub'd
Thanks!
Fantastic project well done. Are you going to make changes to the head so that the camera turns in all axis in the center of gravity. Just wondering.
Hi, thanks! The camera is actually pretty balanced since the lens is the heaviest part of the camera. My focus though was to match the optical axis of the camera with the axis of the motion control rig. At the moment I am integrating the rig into blender and any offset of the optical axis would be really awkward to animate there.
Hi amazing project! , and what is the total cost obtained in production? And is there any instruction for modifying the slider? Thanks
Thank you! The total cost is I think at about 200€ - 300€. The Fusion360 file with all 3d printed parts is in my repo (see description) you can just adapt the design for your slider.
Do you have a parts list of the parts that need to be purchased by any chance? Great project.
Hi, this project is more a reference point for your own moco rig. Therefore I don't have a complete parts list or assembly guide. But all the cad files are in my gitlab repository and I am pretty sure you can figure it out from there. Feel free to ask if you have any questions.
Great build. I'm just wondering why you're using an EF-S lens on an R6.
Thanks! Ef-s lenses work great on the R6. The camera detects it as ef-s and crops the image by 1.6, the same as on a APS-C camera. In movie mode you don't lose any resolution and in still mode you still have about 12.5MP which is plenty for many applications. The only thing you lose is 100/120fps video, which is a bummer, but not as bad as not being able to use ef-s lenses. Autofocus, IBIS and all the other goodies still work great. If you're mainly focusing on shooting video with the R6 I'd highly recommend looking into ef-s lenses.
Woooowww, i was searching for a week now to find a diy slider... This one is soo good.
Now I got a question. Can I, as somebody who just knows Arduino basics, build this slider??? And do I have to build exactly this slider, to get him working and if not, is it easy to configure the axis length in the Programm? The best would be if you opload a video about how to install all of your codes and getting the slider ready... You're doing a awesome job...
Thank you
Hey, thank you for your interest in my project! Unfortunately this is not a beginner's project. You don't need to know just Arduino, but also Javascript, 3d printing, electronics, cad modeling and Linux. I'd suggest that you start with building your own, more simple machine and work your way up, iteration after iteration. I've planned this project for about 3 years before I built the first prototype made of wood. If you have any questions feel free to ask. You got this ;)
Thank you... I'll try making simpler sliders
Wow, very cool project. Two Questions 1. You are from Germany? 2. Is a RasPi not a little oversize?
Hi, yes I am german. The raspberry pi is a bit overkill for this version, but not for what I have planned :)
@@fuzzy4logic I'm from German, too. (I have wrote you an Email :) )
what belt length did you use? I measure 500mm but i can find no belt in this length
so awesome! Do you plan on making more and selling them?
Thank you so much! I don't think mine is ready for production. There are at least 5 versions ahead until it's where I want it to be ^^. If you want to buy a moco rig in this size range I suggest Edelkrone or PureMoCo.

@@fuzzy4logic thank u for the info! will check them out, subscribed! Great work you do! What's ur name btw? :) I'm Jonathan.
Thank you! Hello Jonathan I'm Andy
@@fuzzy4logic nice to meet you Andy =)
Nice to meet you too :)
hi again, quick question: what sizes are the big bearings you use for the pan and tilt movements, and where did you get them? I'd also like to know which handheld controller you're using, it's very nice. I went on your gitlab page and couldn't find any information around the hardware and other devised you used, but maybe I'm just dumb! thanks!
The bearings are 140mm rockler bearings used for lazy susans, you can find them on amazon. I've built the handheld controller myself, you can find the video for that on my channel: ua-cam.com/video/KkGwGZKnBbE/v-deo.html&t
@@fuzzy4logic thank you SO much!! :-)
@@pgabrieli No problem ;)
Great project and great video ;) sub +1
Thank you! ;)
Hey Fuzzy,
Any Chance to get a BOM List?
Cheers!
Hey, i've linked my gitlab repo in the description. In there is the complete cad file. That's all I have for now as the hardware still changes a lot. If you want to give it a go feel free to contact me if you have any questions
very nice. Is there a speed limit?
Thanks, the limit is rather in the acceleration than the speed. Stronger steppers and tighter belts help
where did you get your slewing rings please ? I can t find any affordable one :(
Banggood is your friend ;)
nice pt head, whats its max payload?
Thanks! My heaviest camera and lens weigh together about 1.5 Kg and it's still moving fine with that. The problem is rather the size of the combo because it has to be able to rotate freely
Hi, this is a really nice project. Any chance to get a parts list? And what slider you are using for this? Thank you!
Thank you! I am working on a new version of this project with a complete parts list, I don't have one for this version. The slider is from Kamerar, bought on Amazon, but this will work with any slider if you adjust the 3D models.
Do you know when you will release this new version?
@@tambemsouhype Can't say for sure, it's still a lot of work. I have to redesign and reprint almost every part and the software will change to fluidnc on an ESP32
@@fuzzy4logic Sure, no problem! Can you share what model of Nema 17 you use? I started to learn Arduino now, and I saw some options for Nema 17 on the market.
@@tambemsouhype The type of stepper is not really important here (I use any stepper with 45Ncm of torque from Amazon). The driver has far more impact on the performance. Generally DRV8825 are a good start but TMC drivers are far quieter (and more expensive)
Hello, please tell me what type of bearings you use, can I have a name?
These are rockler bearings or lazy susan bearings. You can find them on Amazon
Would you ever consider selling this and/or a replica of this prototype? I'd even take it in bits an pieces if that's possible. 🙏
No thanks, this is just a hobby for me.
V2 some time this year? 👀
Probably not this year because we are building a house right now^^
But definitely next year.
I have done some work on V2 and the Hardware is 80% built. I am just taking a break until the end of the year because of the whole house thing, haha. V2 will be a full 6 axes rig with a brand new 6 axes remote. So stay tuned ;)
@@fuzzy4logic woah! Then I'll definitely wait on building one until I see the new and improved rig :D I am so excited I can't wait :0
@@fuzzy4logicany chance of a V2 some time in the near future? 🤞🏼
@@KDP2009 I finished printing all the parts of V2 yesterday ;) Video will probably drop towards end of the year
@@fuzzy4logic 😃 AWESOME, I CAN'T WAIT!!!
I've seen your gitlab repository. I saw your stl files. but I can't see your code. only see .js files. how to use gitlab??
Hey, the js files are the code. You have to be familiar with nodejs and Linux to recreate this project. Gitlab is similar to github. You can download the code and use it
@@fuzzy4logic only coding?? You don't have hardware files??
@@user-lw9ph1wk4o All the Hardware files are available in the Gitlab repo
Take TMC drivers for sliders. 2226 or 2209 will work best.
DRV8825 is the worst driver for video rigs you can possibly choose
I've made the same experience while using this rig. The movement is alright, but the sound is unusable. My new designs use TMC2209 drivers
Not sure if this is the best way to contact you, but I've been recreating John Knoll's motion-controlled camera & miniature rig used on the Mandalorian. I'm recreating these rigs to shoot miniature shots of my Razor Crest and such.
I've already finished the CAD models & need assistance with the electronics and programming aspects of the build. Would you be interested in helping me out? My progress is shown on my RPF page: www.therpf.com/forums/threads/motion-controlled-razor-crest-an-ilm-inspired-project.338308/
The things you accomplished in this build are precisely what I want on my own (keying software with a programmable jog box). Let me know if you're interested. Thanks
Hey,
I've looked through your projects. Very impressive! I'd be glad
to help.
Let me know how we can get in contact.
This is the way
@@fuzzy4logic Or would you prefer for me to reach out to you? If so, what email should I send a message to?
Hey, I think youtube deletes comments with email addresses. I've contacted you via the form on your website
@@fuzzy4logic awesome. I just sent you an email. We can talk through email or discord of you want
