A couple of the guys I'm working with helped me build a simple and very inexpensive portable, compact dolly. Most of the materials were scrap and the only thing we forked out any cash for were the skateboard bearings at
$12 from Amazon. I already had a spare tripod head. When I can afford it I'll probably but a video head to make it a little easier to operate.
It took a total of about 1.5 hours to make and I must say it works pretty well. The only other thing I want to add is a base-plate to allow it to be attached to a tripod to make it a little more versatile.
I have used the
Kessler Crane Pocket Dolly before which is great but when you compare $12 to $500+ I know where my budget fits right now.
wow, i got to have one:)
