$100 Motorized Camera Slider

thingiverse

v2 Build coming very soon! I'm prototyping now! If you're interested in testing it please feel free to reach out! This was made as just a fun project! I wanted a camera slider that was quite long, however the prebuilt professional ones were quite expensive, hence this! The slider uses conduit and some 3D printed parts as well as a motor and motor controller from Amazon (listed below). If you happen to make this, please let me know! I'm looking for suggestions/improvements for future renditions.
