Nice.
What camera were you using?

My only thought is that you could do with getting it off the floor or angling the camera up slightly as the shots have a bit too much floor in them.

its a canon 550d, yeah im working on getting a mount to attach it to a tripod so i can do much more shots, the weight of the lens was bringing the camera down aswell so im also working on sorting that out haha

what about something as simple as a 3/8" bolt though the base, that would let you then attach a tripod head to the slide, job done.  Obviously that wouldn't let you change the height but would fix the sag issues and let you angle the camera properly.

Respect for the homebuild.  Loving that.

What's the 'track' from?
