Steadicam Gimble

After recording using the Shoulder Fig Rig, it became apparent that I needed a steadicam. This device seemed quite simple to make. The most important part that needed to be created was the gimble. The gimble is going to keep the steadicam at a horizontal even as its support tips. The gimble was created by using skate bearings placed inside the pipes to allowing a turning movement. 

Now I need to attach the threaded rod which will have the camera mounted to the top and the weights attached to the bottom.
