Hy, ive spent the last couple of nights constructing a jib. all of the frame is made of aliminum. The main parts are welded together, but some conections a bolted and so it can be taken apart. The camera atachers to the end and can be rotated via a whele. Bearings are used to make sure it has smooth motion. It needs painting and the leges need some more bracing but im pleased with it.
