Orbital Camera Rig, Part 2

Yesterday was manufacturing day for the camera rig. All the pieces were measured, cut with the chop saw, then assembled.

The sawdust from cutting the PVC was pretty intense.

Finally, I put it together for a dry fitting.

So, I brought it home and put it up...

And it was too big! It was then I realized that I had measured for 1/2" PVC, but had purchased 3/4" for added stability. So tomorrow, I'll be doing a little trimming up of the top and bottom, as well as a little re-cutting for the top to make it easier to mount my tablet for live streaming. Here are some more pictures f how badly off I was.

At least the fire's been nice.
