Hello all! Well, the time has come for me to sell all my gear and move on in my career. It has been very good to me and I hope all the gear finds a new home. There's a ton of gear here so I'm sure I'm going to miss somethings when I list. I also can say, right of the bat, I don't know every model number or type for each piece of gear. But I took a lot of pictures and would be happy to field any questions regarding any of the gear. Again, I may not know all the answers but I'll do my best. Below is a list of gear, there are photos of everything I'm selling. There are somethings that I haven't used in years. Some of those things worked and some didn't when I stopped using them. I'll try to make that clear in the list. Everything will be sold AS-IS. Here's what I have to sell: -MK-V Sled with MK-V Docking Bracket (great shape) -GPI Pro Titan Arm (2 Black canisters, 2 Blue canisters. In great shape!) -Steadicam Zephyr - Full kit. (With 3-D printed wider grip and 3-D printed monitor bracket. Also includes monitor, original monitor bracket, low mode, and additional battery hanger) -WARNING: While the Zephyr system still works great the gimbal clamp is a bit "frozen" when trying to open and close. Definitely would need work. Also sled does show wear. -Pelican case 1650 with pluck foam for MK-V sled -Janice Arthur Weight cage (I believe its 10lbs all together) -Extra GPI Pro plate (I think I used it twice as I often defaulted to the MK-V plate) -Large Socket Block (Zephyr has smaller block with that kit) -Lots of extra mounting plates and brackets. -2 Switronic V-Mount plates -Teradek Bolt (I believe it's the original version, but can't remember) -WARNING: This did not work last time out which was years ago. Might be good as parts or could be fixed if you're handy maybe?) -HDMI to SDI converter -IKAN Directors cage -Lots of misc cables. Most made by Chris Konash and most of them are for the Zephyr. However, many didn't get used once and I'm not sure exactly what they went to or even what the pin outs were. I do believe that the 3-pin lemo to D-Tap cables are for the MK-V sled. -IDX Batteries with charger. It's only a single charger. Batteries are from 2012. Definitely still hold a charge. 3 - 93wH and 3 - 68wH. -Bartech Follow Focus with 2 motors and lots of cables. Again, very old system. Definitely worked last time I used it but that was many years ago. -I also have a Maglinear Cart for sale with the center mast but I'm not planning on shipping that. I'm located in the Milwaukee area so would be happy to meet up with anyone local to surrounding area (Including Chicago) to sell it. I have pictures if interested. Has a bit of rust but still in decent shape. I'm looking to get $30,000 for everything and for that price, I would ship for free anywhere in US. Outside of US, shipping needs to be covered by the buyer. At this time, I'm not interested in parting it out, but I will be parting everything out by December 1st if there is no interest in buying everything as a whole. Until then, I'm definitely open up to hearing any offers. Thanks for reading! Please hit me up with any questions! PS - Some of the photos are out of order. My apologies for that!!

That's genius.

These stories are incredible on many levels. As a young operator myself, the stories alone give me confidence to say "no". Thanks to all you guys for sharing.

Can anyone identify the part that actually broke? Socket block?

Only once. Producer wanted me on a shoot for a pretty low wage. Long day too. Could've simply said I was unavailable but the message wouldn't get across that way. So I explain in a professional manner that I would be undercutting to many people to take it. He said he understood. Never heard from him again. Would handle it the same way should I ever be put back in the same scenario.

And sold. Off to a great home.

Hello all- I'm looking to sell my Action Products Zero G arm. I recently upgraded my sled and was looking for an arm that can handle more weight. Unfortunately I was naive in thinking that I could use this arm, that's designed for a back mount vest, with my front mount vest. So now I'm trying to get rid of it. It was a great couple jobs with the arm. It was super smooth and the entire kit I purchased gave me a lot of options. Only a few minor cosmetic dings but other then that it looks great. But after a couple gigs I realized it wasn't going to work. But I digress... Because I'm getting rid of it so quick after I purchased it, I never really dove deep into every last thing that came with the kit. However I can list a bunch of things here and hopefully the picture helps you. It comes with: -Several arm post of varying length -Four spring packs equal to two spring sets. Two packs have the older heavy duty round springs, that set can carry lighter loads (Shown separately in the picture). Two packs have the newer flatter springs and that set can do heavier loads (Not pictured separately as they are in the arm in the picture). -Low mode bracket -Set of bearings and set of allen wrenches -Extra Socket Block There are other misc. odds and ends in there as well shown in the pictures. I'm looking to get $4,500 USD and have buyer pay for shipping as well, but I'll consider other offers. Any questions feel free to email me at: RyanBrooks05@gmail.com. Thanks for looking! Ryan Brooks

I've had the same issue. Mine was coming from the base of the gimbal handle and where it meets the arm. Most often in the cold. I used a touch of lubricate. Helps.
