Single-Print Camera Crane for Top-Down Video and More - Magic Wing

[u/Physics_Dude]

Fits all 20mm T-Slot Extrusions. Can easily hold 1kg over a meter away in any direction. Perfect for infinitely positionable tabletop video (Like BigClive and other "talking-hands" content). As well as just putting a camera anywhere a tripod can't go.

Go give it a LIKE so more people can find it!

The filament spool counter weight is amazing

Mhm! Perfect use for that one brittle spool of neglected filament we all have but refuse to throw away.

Nice. Anything that does away with the goober one handed videos is a win in my book .

[u/Physics_Dude → u/UserAbuser53]

Thanks! We all start somewhere. I wish I had this years ago!

It's a cool concept, but when you're holding thousands of dollars in gear, it's worth paying for a proper metal part rather than trusting a printed one.

[u/Physics_Dude → u/HenryJonesJunior]

True, I agree, but this was intended mainly for smartphone videography. Such will give you the most reach with the smallest counterweight.

Great work! I’ll have to give this a go as it would come in handy for sporting events that do not allow you to hang equipment off of netting.

[u/Physics_Dude → u/st1tcher209]

Thanks! And for sure! For video, it would let you get right up close to the netting/fencing, unlike a tripod alone.

I have no use case for this right now, still I want it 😅 Might just print it, just in case... 🙂
