  1. Hi Mark. Thanks for the suggestions! I did go to steadyrig.com, but no price info (boo). And as far as contacting the great Pappert, I was just trying not to waste his time (as valuable as it is). I was just being impatient. I'll give steadyrig a call on Monday. Bud Kremp
  2. Anybody know how much the Steadyrig Batt Hanger goes for? Also, How fast can I get my hands on it? Thanks All ! Bud Kremp 818-402-6411
  3. Hi Matt, Give The Battery Hut a call, they are located at; 912 South Glenoaks Blvd. Burbank, CA 91502 Phone: 1-800-720-BHUT 818-558-6740 (won't be cheep, but I checked previously, so I know they can do it depending on the batts you choose) Good Luck! Bud Kremp Burbank, CA
  4. FYI, I just looked it up online. "What cost $3500. in 1989 would cost $6060.83 in 2007." According to http://www.westegg.com/inflation/ Bud Kremp
  5. (SAMPLE) Bud Kremp Camera/Pro Steadicam Owner/Operator Los Angeles, CA Available after 8-12-08 818-402-6411 budkremp@yahoo.com
  6. It would be great if there was an availability list forum. Maybe, there could be a forum other than "Jobs/Resumes"? I have been working so much this year, and I have needed a replacement for Operator/Steadicam Operator here and there. Perhaps by checking into the "availability forum" I could get an idea of who may be available in my area that I could start calling first, rather than just cold calling random people. (these are the things I think about, while driving 30mins home from work) Cheers! Bud Kremp

  8. Hi Eric, Bud Kremp here. Hope all's well on "Hanging Out...". Any idea where I can get a pwr cable to pwr my Archos from the rig? Or are you trying to make your own? If the latter, may I ask for your assitance on making my own? All the best! And thanks again! Bud Kremp
  9. Hi Guys, I requested something like this from the grip brothers on "Drive". It had the same style wheels. Only problem was, the faster we went, the back wheels used for steering would begin to "chatter" like riding really fast acrossed the parking lot on a grocery cart (c'mon...we've all done it). Please advise if this does it too. Hopefully not. Bud Kremp Burbank, CA
  10. Hello Dave, Is the Modulus still available? Bud Kremp budkremp@yahoo.com
  11. UPDATE!!! Got to work this am, and had a steadicam shot first thing. Cleaned my gimbal, did not use lube. Gimbal was stickier than ever. Called Jack at PRO. Asked me if I "use the Steadicam a lot". I said "yes". "How old is the gimbal" he asked. I didn't know. "Older than a year" he asked. "Probably" I sheepishly replied. "Your gimbal bearing is shot" he informed. Gladly, I chose that exact moment to send the rig in to GPI to have the new VZ Gimbal assembly and new main bearing installed. Sadly, we didn't do another steadicam shot the rest of the day. AH what joy tomorrow brings!! Remember kids!! Replace yeer gimbal bearings once a year!!!
  12. Hi Rick, Thanks. I really did assume as much. However, there were no resonses to your post, so I thought it was worth a shot. Thanks again, Bud Kremp
  13. Hello Rick, Was wondering if you still had this available for sale? Bud Kremp 818-402-6411
  14. Great Topic! I to, use the quick drying, non-residue, plastic safe cleaner (available at Fry's Electronics). I resorted to lubricating the main bearing, but not the smaller bearings about a year or two ago. I found that the horizon leveling resonse time was considerably faster without the lube, but was too chicken to not lube the main bearing. After hearing the opinions on this forum topic, on monday I am going to try the main gimbal, clean and lube free (actually, last night about 1am, while trying to hold a static wideshot, the lube in the gimbal was very cold and stiff, any induced body movement shows.....pissed me off! can't wait to try the non-lube technique) Bud Kremp local600forum.com Administrator
  15. Ahh. I see...Do I hear $2600.00 !?! Thanks Norbert! Bud Kremp
  16. Any offers anybody? Willing to negotiate. :D Cheers, Bud Kremp

  18. Hi everyone, I, like everyone else, throughly enjoy this awesome website (thank you Tim!). It was after visiting SteadicamForum.com that it occured to me that there wasn't a successful website that allowed members of ICG Local 600 to have the same opportunity to communicate as those who visit SteadicamForum.com have. After discussing the concept with some co-workers, the concensus was that it may be a good idea and worth a try. You be the judge. www.local600forum.com isn't meant to replace the extraordinary SteadicamForum.com, only to augment topics of discussion more in line with the needs of Local 600 members. For your convenience, a link is available directly back to SteadicamForum.com for instant access! Fraternally, Bud Kremp Camera/Steadicam Operator
  19. Hi dave, I may have a vhs tape of ted demo'ing steadicam, made at a victor duncan. If I can find it, interested? bud kremp (we worked together on "thick as thieves")
  20. Shit yeah Bill!!! Welcome Back!!! Bud Kremp Camera/Steadicam Op
  21. Hi there, Just looking to see if anybody has any of the old style pro batts for sale? Also if avail, the charging cable as well. Thanks. All the best. Bud Kremp
