DIY Camera Slider V.2

thingiverse

This is the second version of the DIY-Camera Slide, featuring a remarkably light yet rigid slider that weighs approximately 860 grams. Built with a total material cost of around $35, this slide can be manufactured in just 20-30 minutes using common milling tools. Although assembly might require some skill, having a second person on hand is highly recommended to avoid any potential difficulties. A 3mm bit with two flutes was used for milling the parts, operating at a feed rate of 1000 mm/min and a spindle speed of 25,000 RPM. The exact list of required parts includes: Two 300mm linear rails with MGN12 carriages, perfect for both CNC and 3D printer applications One 300mm by 20mm aluminum profile Two M6 by 25mm screws Four GT2 deflection rollers Forty M3 by 6mm screws Twenty-four T-Nuts in the size of M3 One GT2 Belt, which is sufficient for a length of one meter To see this DIY-Camera Slide come to life, check out the making-of video at https://youtu.be/JqGUrd5lCDw.
