Premium Member Stephen Perera Posted October 8, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted October 8, 2017 I've come across what looks like an affordable dolly and track system (concept) from CINERAILS which allows you to use standard 20mm PVC tubes found all over the world....are there any more recommendations for dolly and track for us mere mortals who spend from our own pocket????

Premium Member Phil Rhodes Posted October 16, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted October 16, 2017 I made one from bits of metal. All I'll say is that for basic tasks I have not found a reason to replace it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ Young Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Dana Dolly here in the states is one of the go-to indie dollies. Incredibly versatile for simple moves; I use it on almost every feature. http://www.danadolly.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Adrian Sierkowski Posted October 22, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted October 22, 2017 Latching off the Dana Dolly; Norms has the "stealth slider" kit which is cheaper and works just as well if not better. I much enjoy the low-offsets for the stands it comes with :https://normsstudio.equipment/shop/dollies-slider-and-tracks/stealth-slider/stealth-slider-kit-package-2/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vital Butinar Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 I was tired at looking for something affordable so I made my own. This first one is a test one for a larger one but I still use it on small stuff. The design was done one day on the idea I got of a youtube video and then bought all the stuff and hacked it together. The wooden base plates were cut by laser by a friend of mine and it worked out great. The next one is going to be a bit beefier and bigger to support a heavier camera system. I really don't see the reason why I should pay $1000 for something I don't know if I'm going to be able to pay off and make myself. Best regards.
