Steady Cam

Hi all, I'm a video enthusiast and for this reason I decided to build a steady cam to get action videos with the smartphone.

The steady cam is essentially composed of a support and a mechanical oscilloscope, and this allows to stabilize the abrupt movements the operator performs while taking a movie.

• A little 3D Printer (working area 150 x 150 mm)
• Lathe machine
• Drill machine
• Hand shaw
• Bending
• Tips to drill and metric Threaded Male
• Keys for screwing screws

Some parts are printed on Pla or Abs and a couple of mechanical parts.

To complete the assembly, these components are also required:

N°8 M4 self-locking nuts

N°2 M4 nuts

N°1 Screw TCEI M4x12

N°2 Screw TCEI M4x16

N°2 Screw TCEI M4x60

N°2 Compression spring

diameter wire d.0,5mm

external diameter 7mm

lenght 85mm

N°1 knob M6x10 or a srew.

This is a useful video for assembling all the parts that make up the steady cam.

Here you can see the difference of a video shot with or without steady cam.
