Very helpful video thanks

I got a side winder door opener for my garage studio. Frees up a lot of wasted space that the old style garage door openers require.

Great video. Can you describe how to tighten the pantagraph a little better. I need mine to be a little tighter. It keeps sliding down.

We Miss Kobe!! :-(

Great video. Really like the backlights... Did you make those also?

Do you have updated links for these? It looks like the originals were taken down

Dope mike! I want to do this for our podcast studio.

Ben lol yes that was me and my family! I probably look a bit off because of the makeup they slathered on me 😅

The eBay seller for the rails sells under 2 eBay accounts and they said that they will not be restocking the rails. I guess they are selling their remaining stock of accessories and that will be the end of it. :(

Hi, great video, really helpful. Is there any chance you can update the eBay parts list, they have all expired? Thank you

I was hella laughing too tho. 🤣🤣

great video! question if you weren't doing the quadrants and just wanted one big section like 15x15 foot would you just butt up the struts to eachother ? would that work or how would you go about doing that? thanks in advance if you see this and can answer.

Great question! The kit I got came with coupler pieces that allows you to extend the rails. I’m hoping all modern kits would have those.

Oh wow! This is EXACTLY what I need, thanks a lot for the video! Though, I can see that the lights and mic are wobbling quite a lot when extended. I guess there is no way around that? :/

Oh yeah there's no way around the nature of the amount of play with these things. I don't find it a huge problem unless you need to move lights while live and don't have time to stabilize them after.

@@drowles25 No, I didn't. Seemed a bit too much work at the time so I ended up hanging the mic off a gooseneck from the ceiling and mounting the lights to the wall using scissor arms. Works OK but I feel that I need to revisit this still at some point since it's not perfect.

Has anyone in 2020 found a parts solution to duplicate what Mike did SO WELL, here? I can't find the parts.

What do call it the one for the light stand hanging .?

OH NO 🙉 Not Hairspray scratching… Aaaaaaaaah! 🙄🤣

Hi, what about the 3D printed cable carriers? I’m all about that. BTW your double carriages, do you know if the ID of the C channel across is 1 1/2” I ended up with a bunch that are 1 1/2 OD and do not fit my track #@%! ;)

Im having problems connecting my pantograph to the double sliding carriage. Can you help. I loved your video

Hey Todd, the pantograph should be on it’s own carriage that goes directly onto a rail. Does your pantograph not have a carriage?

All of your ebay links are dead.

Kobe died exactly one month after this posted. So you will need a new tall person to interview.
