ikea hacker: Ivar loves Dolly

Lights, camera, Ikea hack! Romain turns the Ivar side unit into rails for the cam.

"A few days ago, I found out that the Ivar "wooden ladder" was perfect to use it as rails for my cinema dolly! I can now make some nice sequence shots with this 18€ accessory from Ikea."

Add'l parts used:

- 12 rollerblade wheels with ABEC1 bearings
- 12 "L" metal plates
- A thick and heavy wooden plate (50x80x2,3cm)
- Some skateboard grip
- Bolts, nuts, rings
- AND (I forgot to mention it) a "GRUNDTAL" toilet paper dispenser as a handle!



Check out this video shot from the Ivar rail.
