Modular camera slider w/ 2020 extrusion

Work In Progress

Purpose

This design aims to create a cheap, robust and modular camera slider that can be easily extended in length.

Bill of materials

• 2020 extrusion profile
• Stepper motor w/ GT2 pulley
• ATmega MCU (e.g. ATmega 328P used in arduino pro mini)
• Stepper motor driver (e.g. A4988)
• GT2 belt

To do

1. Create extrusion sliders
2. Create camera plate
3. Create intermediate holding point for tripod attachment
4. Add parameters to allow custom design (2040 profiles, larger camera plate, etc)
