Premium Members Brant S. Fagan SOC Posted March 27, 2006 Premium Members Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Gents-- My own take on this issue is the Gemini Jr. with nose and shelf. I feel that this size is great for most vehicles and NYC elevator cars! Here's a look, albeit a slightly out of date pic, of how my gear rides around. Note the dock for the sled. No 5/8" (0.625") stud and second bracket needed and notice how the sled rides in a protected position between the handles. Steadicam fits fully built no matter the format or the mode (high or low). Hat's off to Alec for mentioning the need to keep items and spares within arm's reach rather than back on the truck. With an appropriately sized cart, most of us should be able to keep things close at hand and ready at a moments notice. I may have more of the MagDock brackets available if folks are interested. This bracket attaches to the Magliner handlebars and also adds a crossbar and stiff leg to keep things in position. I keep my Preston and Video Pelican 1650s on board as well as a Porta-Brace PC-2 for some spares and "deep-dig" kit items. Note the pneumatics at the corners: a must have for 4/0 cables, curbs and cobblestones! Best, Brant S.

Premium Members Erwin Landau Posted March 29, 2006 Premium Members Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 We should move this topic to Brackets/Widgets as the "for sale" adds and "wanted" adds will be hiden after 2 months, they are still there but hidden and you can only find them if you know what the title was... Let's move it to: "Magliner steadi cart" that we started about a year ago... in Brackets/Widgets See you there, Erwin PS: Somebody should move the whole discussion to Brackets (Tim...????)
