The video shows the process of design and manufacture of large rail slider from standard parts, purchased at retail, at a total cost of less than $ 20.
The length of the rail slider 1,5 of metr and weighs 2.3kg.

It has long wanted to get a rail slider for revitalization and better watchable movies. First look ready solutions on Aliexpress, but there price sliders to 1.2 meter starts from $ 160. Moreover, its design does not inspire any confidence.
Then I reviewed the internet a lot of homemade, but they either were too shabby, either require a lot of manual work and the specific materials that do not find in our stores.
Then I went to the local special stock markets and there in the tent, where they sell furniture accessories, saw a very interesting, steel, chrome tube length 3 meters. The seller said he could on the spot to cut the tube in half. It was exactly what you need to start the project.
On the same day sketched drawing of the slider, the basis of which I took this same pipe and steel mounting plates that are looked after on the same market in a tent hardware products. Then, when looking for fasteners, I saw the same plate and in DIY stores.

It took quite a lot of fasteners for the manufacture of the slider, but then the slider turned noble. Glidetrack has a very easy way and uniform motion. This eliminates the need for electric carriage when shooting videos. It is enough to tilt the rails a few degrees to the slider even started moving.

Creative success to friends!
