Below is a short-film titled Fade, which features time-lapse scenes shot with the prototype version of this dolly, using 1rpm and 2rpm motors for the time-lapse shots. The video was shot in and around Lake Powell, Utah.

The compact time-lapse dolly uses the same drawer slides I use in high-end kitchens. When the slides are fully extended, the winch pulls the drawer closed giving you approximately 18 inches of movement.

This dolly is the quintessential tool for capturing smooth time-lapse video shots when movement is required.

Portable & Adjustable Saw Horse Plans

Adjustable Saw Horse Extended

Now available for sale, Adjustable Saw Horse CAD drawings, specifications, and parts list!

These sawhorses are portable, rugged and fully adjustable. They are great for filming video when an elevated track is required for dolly shots. The adjustable sawhorses have been tested in many different environments and have always performed extremely well. An advantage of this design is that they have the ability to break down, which means they take up less space when not in use and while in-transit. Another nice feature is the adjustability of the design, which allows you to set up a level track even if the ground you are working on is slanted or uneven.
