I have only used this tripod to film one edit. It has been used for a total of about 2 hours.

You could sell that tripod for pretty much what you payed since it's almost new, and buy a 24 inch slider off indisystems with the money you make.

If you can't get a trade offer, this is definitely a good second option.

get a roller bearing slider, not a dry-line.

i repeat, ROLLER BEARINGS ONLY

Konova sliders are amazing and cost just as much as a glidetrack.
