Yeah i can get the slider really smooth just it is a little hard to keep a constant speed
and the problem is that i would need two tripods because the slider is about 3 feet long and when we had it on 1 tripod the pvc would flex on the ends

can you link me to the tut for the slider and "steady cam" ? and then i would pick up just another set of decent legs identical to your current ones, or at least similar.
