My DIY Overkill MKI Motorized / Timelapse Dolly

My DIY Overkill MKI Motorized / Timelapse Dolly Tube. Duration : 13.55 Mins.


Here is a dual purpose Motorized Dolly I made, It can be used as a time lapse dolly or a motor dolly with the appropriate controller. The time lapse engine is from Dynamic Perception. The joystick motor controller is my own design. I will post more details later. I got the joystick off ebay. Look for "potentiometer joystick" They are used for security camera controllers and claw crane games. The motor controller is from www.basicmicro.com Belts are 3/8" XL series from, shop.polybelt.com The 12 volt gear motor came from. www.drillspot.com The pulleys and belts are XL series for 3/8" wide belts. The outside diameter of the pulleys is 2 inch. The shafts, flanged bearings, and shaft collars are all 5/16". The shaft collars have set screws which makes them easy to install. All the drive components were purchased from Amazon.com www.amazon.com Hardware can be purchased locally also. I purchased the 80/20 aluminum extrusion from eBay "80/20 Garage Sale", they sell 80/20 with slight defects in color or minor handling marks for much less then on their normal web store. Search for, "T-Slot Aluminum Extrusion 15 Series 3030-L" stores.ebay.com and the linear bearing, www.ebay.com
