Wow super machine
NOW I understand why the production quality of your videos is so high! I worked in the television industry for 28 years and really appreciate well-produced videos like yours.
32 for us, it's one of the reason why I've started my channel. Thanks
This requires so much talent and experience.
I love how you have some oak boards lying around, I have to look for the nice pine boards in my shop. The tripod looks fantastic! Can’t wait to see the other videos!
LOL Yes this oak was from Matthias. His father cut it with his sawmill. When I visited his shop Matthias gave me some oak, I wanted to do something special with Mr Wnadell's wood, so I made this tripod, at least the legs :))
Finally, I miss your builds alain. wish could see your video more often, more power.
I very like your tools
Very inspiring! I especially like the idea of the snow brush used as a sliding extender. For those that don't have a lathe to turn those beautiful oak legs, one might substitute round aluminum tubing.
Yes. The tripod wer have at work are somekind of fiberglass or something very strong and round but you're right alluminium is easier to find.
While I've always admired your desire to mill and fabricate each and every piece of your creations, there are occasional times when it just doesn't make any sense. Making dowels is at the top of that list.
I didn't wanted to go out to buy some dowels. And also I wanted to make something special with Mathias' father oak. So now I see Mr Wandel's oak that he cut himself each day. Priceless :))
There is that ..
Great project Alain! Really looking forward to seeing the next episode! :-)
It's amazing what you can do with dead tree carcass.
So much skill mon ami! Delightful!
Fantastic, as usual Alain!
🔥
A great tripod!
I love this.
300 Drill press
700 Table saw
300 Miter saw
100 Hand drill
400 Belt sanders two kinds
500 Lathe
200 Mortise
10 Snow brush
40 Fancy measuring device
300 Router
40 Clamps (5) three kinds-sizes good ones
350 Band saw
15 Rasp
10 Wood file
40 Hand plane
60 Several drills for drill press
30 Hand square
30 Measuring tape
350 Disk sander
40 Polisher for fine sanding
30 Spoke shave
I make this rather conservative list. Basically, it totals in the neighborhood of $3,000. But that is not for high quality tools.
In summary, the woodpecker has a high end shop. Small wonder why such a tripod would not be cheap to purchase.
That will satisfy for a while... then you'll build a camera gantry . Awesome!
wonder what all those tools would cost? (not to mention operating skill )
Did you and Matthias coordinate this week's videos? :)
LOL not at all. I was keeping this video for a special occasion, and today was the special occasion. I added something at the end of the French version and I wanted a really nice video to add our annoncement. Just to say this was recorded in January of 2017 over a year ago, at least they're snow on the grtound :))
Last episode was green grass! Weather sure does change where we live! Another great video Alain!
if it is not a problem for you, please share the sketch file.Thankyou nice video..
If you go to mt website the woodpecker.net you will find it in the plans section
J,AIME BEAUCOUP SE QUE TU FAIT TU AS BEAUCOUP D, IMAGINATION
very nice looks better than the store bought ones ehhh
Trop Fort!!!
Nice work as usual Alain. Whatever happened to the bandsaw you made?
This was made before the bandsaw. In January 2017 :) Ok I'm a bit behind in my posting but at least on this video I had snow outside, not this year snow, but still snow :))
Hey are you selling these. I’d be interested
No sorry
Nice build, but you know, I could give you a very good price on a Vinten or Sachtler tripod with a good head... :-D
Probably but not as fun as building it. And on top I was able to use the oak from Matthias's father for something half decent to look at :)
Yes, I know! I am a Vinten Platinum Dealer, but still, I'm planning on how to build my own custom camera rig in the shop. Love your videos btw!
je viens de découvrir votre site super et bonjour de dorion :-)
Salut voisin!
Bon jour des Cascades :) on vas probablement se voir au IGA un jour LOL
ben oui :-) , sa fait drole une start de CZcams a coté de chez nous .
Une star LOL faut pas exagérer....
hi matthias!...oh wait your not matthias this is just the same as a video as he has already done...
I thought you recognized the wood that I was using ;) Yes the oak come from their land and it's him and his father that turned the trees into planks. He was unable to carry the wood from Sault Saint-Marie to his house and he wanted to give it away to someone who would use it to something else than fire wood... And every body needs a wooden tripod :)
Buy a Berlebach.
WOW they're very nice tripod, but it's not as fun as making your own :) But I bet they're lighter tan mine made all from oak and sapele
