  2. Hi… Ive received lots of inquiries… wanted to post pictures and create it’s own listing for more information. It’s a product from Backstage called the Shotsaver. Not exactly a richshaw since it has four wheels, but is intended for handheld, Steadicam hard mounting, and loads more. Very customizable design. It comes in two large cases, although depending how far it has to ship, I might break out items into a third box for better protection. Local pickup available in Doylestown, PA. The cross members are expandable speed rail sections so the chassis width can be adjusted per application. Pictures below… will add more soon. Not shown in the pictures are four Dune Wheels (deflated and never used), pair of additional fixed wheels (matching the ones in the picture so you can have four straight wheels), a pair of smaller sized wheels (so you can lower the chassis if necessary), one additional chest/back support that’s v-shaped, and tools/spare parts. Asking $3500 USD
  3. Hi All… here’s a list of items that remain. Pictures coming… but please reach out if interested! KS4 Gyro Kit (I posted these separately as well) - asking $4500 OBO Backstage Shotsaver Rickshaw - includes wheel confits as follows… straight+swivel, all straight, and dune wheels. Very clean, very light use. Asking $3500 OBO Custom Butt Dolly - based off the film tools butt Dolly but converted to telescoping center post with swivel seat. Asking $800 Klassen Garfield - includes Mitchell plate, tie down, and pipe clamp plus tools and parts. Asking $1000 OBO Small HD DP7 - with cables and directors handles. This has built in artificial on screen horizon indicator!!! Asking $1000 OBO Betz Wave - posted separately Asking $4950
  4. Some videos of gyros running… IMG_0095.MOV IMG_0096.MOV IMG_0094.MOV
  5. Very important to balance properly. To that point, at my asking price I’ll include this useful balance too… basically a Pam bracket, dogbone, and stackable weights. Really key to balance your camera and sled properly for use with the wave. Makes all the difference! and found two other cables specific to master/ultra/Tiffen sleds for powering wave. 0b 3pin Lemo (Tiffen) to 1b 3pin lemo (wave). Both included at asking price!

  12. Hi Steadicam Community! As you may have seen in other Marketplace listings, I’m looking to find a new home for my Steadicam Package. My hope was to sell it all to a burgeoning young operator, but I’m not sure that dream can be realized… so I’m starting to entertain breaking it all up. If however, you are a young, enthusiastic operator (full of piss and vinegar as GB would say) looking to buy a turn-key Steadicam Package… take a look at the link below and feel free to reach out with an offer! If however, you’re only in the market for a used sled, I am entertaining breaking the package up and selling it piece meal. This listing is for a used, and well cared for and maintained G70x… originally bought as a G70 and paid $2500 for the X upgrade. Its in great shape. Look below to see what’s included! Pictures forthcoming! Asking for $10,900 OBO. - G70X - Includes both Stock Mating Block & Klassen’s Rigid Block (about $850 or $900) - this really improves finite control of the sled - Rain Covers - Arm Bag - 6” Post - 8” Post - 12” Post - 18” Post - J-Bracket - Also think I have a turnaround post for Pro Rigs And again… if you’re looking for a complete Steadicam system please see this link below!

If however, you’re only in the market for a used sled, I am entertaining breaking the package up and selling it piece meal. This listing is for a used, and well cared for Klassen Harness. Not sure what they called this model. It has the rigid hinge on the front closure which I think is far superior to the ratchets on both sides. Also I recently replaced the pad covers, and bought an entire extra set of pads/covers/bladder which is included. Pictures forthcoming! Asking for $4,400 OBO. I realize you can get a new Klassen Harness around $6000 but I assure you this rigid hinge is really worth it if you’re looking for precision operating control! - Klassen Harness (prob fits 5’6” to 6’ ranging in weight from 150lbs to 200lbs depending on height - I’m 5’8” @ 170lbs) - (2) sets of pads, covers, and air bladder - (2) Air pumps - Drop Down Arm - Goofy & Regular side slide adapters - Fat Link (this is a link that goes into the hinge assembly if you’re wearing extra clothes, etc to make the harness bigger) - Pelican Case Available - Ask!

  18. I'm selling my Steadicam package and making the full time commitment to transition into Directing. Everything is in great shape, as I take great care of my equipment. The only thing to keep in mind is that the batteries are all used, and you would likely want to have them re-celled or replaced at some point. I am first and foremost interested in selling the entire package as a whole. PLEASE hesitate to send me emails requesting that I break things up, if the time comes when I have to do that... I'll gladly repost. This is a great package for someone ready to take the plunge into Steadicam operating! I'm located in Doylestown, PA and that will be where items will need to be picked up from. Also open for discussion is a workshop... I'd be willing to run a one, two or three day workshop with the purchase of this package. Hotels avail nearby! In addition to the equipment included, I'm including in the sale all of the tools necessary for making Hirose and Lemo connectors. These tools are very pricy, and I will no longer have any need for them. I'll also include a bunch of new and used lemo, hirose, and AB connectors for future use in the production of cables, etc. OK! So here is generally what is included in the sale. I've also attached a detailed spreadsheet. I don't have any pictures yet, but working on putting those together. - Ultra2 Sled - Klassen Deluxe Harness (fits 5'8 to 5'10 roughly / 150-190lbs) - Wave & AKS - G70 Arm - 2x Quad IDX Chargers - 12x IDX HL9 Batteries - Preston HU3 - Preston Single Channel HU - 2x MRD2 Upgraded with Blue Dot & Internal Cinetape Electronics - 3x KS-4 Gyros & Accessories - Antlers - Custom Compact Cart - American Stand - Gorelock Docking Bracket / System - Sled Bed - Rickshaw (with additional dune wheel kit) - Loads of Parts / Brackets / Cables / Etc (see itemization) Asking Price - $85,000 + Tax Please feel free to reach out with reasonable offers... again only for the entire package. Price does not include workshop. Itemization.pdf
  19. Used to use this on the bottom of my Ultra sled. Should fit master/ultra style plates and compatible with dovetail at base of sled. Approx 2.2lbs. Reasonable offered entertained!
