Homemade overhead multifunction camera shooting rig with no vertical supports

This is my homemade overhead multifunction camera rig, it is made mainly from welded metal tube, it is attached to the ceiling and has no vertical supports which leaves all the work area clear. It is multifunctional because it is mounted on runners and covers all the benches in the workshop and the arm adjusts to cover most angles, the camera attaches to the arm using a Joby Gorillapod Ball Head
