Alright guys, this one I'm going to need some input on...Recently, I decided to work on another DIY project using some of the leftover PVC from the DIY-Shoulder Mount. This one was pretty simple and ran me somewhere in the vicinity of $8.50 with a little help from the Sal on the rollerblades.
It rolls smoothly, readjusts easily, and stores perfectly. But I can't seem to come up with a solid solution for the most important piece...the fluid head mount. As it stands, I took a pvc end cap and drilled a 3/4" hole in it to hold the fluid head. But it tends to wobble and doesn't want to sit straight. Any ideas are welcome.
PVC: $3
Bolts: $2
Wheels: $3.50
can you add another bridge off of the center? take a t mount, to make a square on the top. then attach some wood to make a base for the mount.
ReplyDelete@skipper - Not a bad idea at all! That might help solidify things. Any idea what you would attach the wood with?
ReplyDeleteI actually was able to eliminate the majority of the wobble by waking up and realizing that I could put a permanent bolt inside that end cap tighten it like there is no tomorrow and screw the fluid head onto that... for some reason that didn't occur to me until 3 months later. - Now it's perfect.
