Replacing MK-V Carbon Fiber Center Post
brett.mayfield replied to Aser Santos Jr.'s topic in Center Post
Hey Aser I know that this is a long time coming but i just read it. First off, great mythological reference! I would start by getting a set of calipers, digital or analog. measure the outside diameter of the lower post. you will then know what to look for with your monitor mount. that being said, many monitor mount manufacturers have step-down rings in a variety of sizes. you can also have one made (sort of like this https://www.cinedynamics.com/collections/featured-collection/products/delrin-bushings-for-2-universal-clamp) the mounting pattern for the lower electronics is likely to be the same as the upper electronics, as far as how it mounts to the post. you mentioned a 4-hole pattern, but i believe that is for the topstage to the electronics and should have no bearing on the post to electronics. when purchasing a new center post, tell the manufacturer what kind of electronics you are running. for instance, XCS will make center posts for XCS and PRO electronics. you can also have custom lengths built by XCS. Maybe MKV would be willing to cut down your post and reattach the mounts. i am having that done to one of my XCS posts. brett. -

hey yall! ive got a gyros case here that i like a lot. it has room for two KS6 gyros and one KS4. there is a spot for an inverter, a spot for your go-to cables, and a large section that could easily hold a KS8 or tons of hardware and other cables. The foam is in perfect condition and the inner hinge holds the top up securely. Notice that the eternal corners have riveted corner-guards to ease impact when shuffling this case on and off of shelves. dimensions are 28.5"x11.5"x8.5" selling for $150 plus shipping from atlanta. i will also soon be selling a KS6 if youd like to make it a package deal. brett.

hey dude so this part was already on the magliner, so i do not know its origin. ill see if i can dig it up, but i believe it was a 1.25" speed rail plate. however mentioning junior pin may be correct. ill snoop around. i did not use it except for holding umbrellas... brett.- 6 replies

Gen 4 Batt Rack with Two jumper blocks
brett.mayfield replied to Shawn Wang's topic in Steadicam Marketplace - For Sale
That was a great explanation -
I absolutely love the heden motors. maybe a year or two ago they were purchased and the customer service is a little quicker i believe. i think that preston motors are only common because they are an american institution, but frankly i think that they are way behind the curve. so many positives to heden: -very easy to swap the gear to the other side of the unit (snaps in and out) -size -doesnt require any screw drivers for mounting, changing orientation, etc. -mounting is super quick and easy; can flip upside in seconds (the only arguable disadvantage is if you need to mount to a dogbone or something like the preston mounting congiuration, youll have to get creative, but i have never had an issue) -package comes with all sorts of gear sizes as well as collets for 15mm and panavision size (the motors are standard 19mm) -quiet the only advantage preston may have its that their beefiest motors probably has a bit more torque, but i never had an issue. ive owned 6 hedens i believe. i dunno what your kit would be but i carried 1xM26 and 3xM21 but that LM30 looks rad. total disclaimer - i no longer own them because i sold off all monitors, wireless, and fiz units because i like buying remote heads and rigs brett.

Gen 4 Batt Rack with Two jumper blocks
brett.mayfield replied to Shawn Wang's topic in Steadicam Marketplace - For Sale
Hey Nico The Gen4 rack is the best in my opinion, Ive had a few different hangers. its slim, lightweight, and keeps the rig short. the only thing that i dont like is that extending the back two batteries is a little tough to do precisely when the rig is on the arm, as it binds a bit, but really this is not a deal breaker. it only works with the gen4 power block, so batteries only power the sled and aks in one configuration, except shawn seems to have a cool power block that allows for all plates to run 12v power. it will work on the cinemaHD configuration and cinelive. to my knowledge, the only difference is the added line of HD on the cinelive. hope youre well dude! brett. -

walter klassen arguably makes the best the Jerry Hill version is great. I have two, but they are basic and will require more on your part to keep things level, etc.
