Built a Knex Follow Focus

[Greg Schlosser]

I've seen a few different versions of follow focuses built out of Knex, but they all either had a rail system or special ordered gears.
I'm going to have to adjust how it attaches once I put it on a tripod, but this is what it looks like now

That's pretty impressive. Does the rubber band slip much?

Add a couple more wheels and you've got yourself a built-in dolly as well....

[Greg Schlosser]

Thanks. They don't slip at all. Just have to find a rubber band or two that are tight enough to stretch, but not too tight to pull the camera in.

And good idea. I have a dolly, but I've never even used it because it's big and heavy.

That is just fucking brilliant... LOVE IT!
