RailDolly – Large Camera Slider
If you want to DIY your own end-brackets you can purchase just our RailDolly carriage and get the same smooth movement as in our more complete systems.
The RailDolly Carriage has a large footprint and provides great stability when using a full-size cameras.The RailDolly is also a good option for critical audio recording because operation is silent with it’s semi-soft wheels. This configuration uses one RigPlate, two RigAxles and two different types of skate wheels.
You can use this carriage with any pipe/tube with an OD between 1-2″. Most common is 1-1/4″ Schedule 80 aluminum pipe which can be purchased at a metal supplier. Another great material to use which is more widely available is heavy-duty, chrome closet pole available at Home Depot, Lowe’s etc… The RailDolly Camera Slider can also be used on square or rectangular rails. Square/rectangular rails are much more rigid at long lengths than tube/pipe so if you’re going to be putting a BIG camera rig in motion this is an ideal option.
With the components in this kit you can also configure our RigSkate so you get 2 great options for movement.
If attaching a ball mount tripod head you will need one of our Bowl Mount Adapters. This configuration also included the parts to configure our RigSkate so you get 2 great options for movement.
