Oh my god it's gorgeous!! I'm 6'3" tall so it's IMPOSSIBLE to find affordable, quality tripods for my height at an affordable price. I just wish I had the means to build a tripod like this.

👍

[@ACasualCustomer]

Dont know why im watching this, i dont even have those machines

[@Swiftey-wu2qq]

Sometimes it is nice to just watch and live the moment

[@joec9669]

Thats a beautiful tripod. Exceptional job.

[@javierocampo1412]

Excelente video, felicitaciones!! Quedó hermoso!! Por esas casualidades, tendrás las medidas de los cortes? Te lo agradecería mucho! Saludos!

[@livingbymethod163]

Thanks

[@johntravena119]

It would be stronger if the top part the legs are attached to was laminated. Nice design though!

[@shatterpointgames]

It never amazes me to see how versatile wood is. God was like "they'll probably want to build bridges, houses, carriages, tripods, furniture, shoes, spaceships (yes cork is sometimes used in space), ect....

[@z_kadodz]

Great video. I'm actually making something like this for my GCSEs, what kind of wood did you use to make this??

[@dpmakestuff]

It was just some scrap spruce. If I did it again, I'd use hardwood. Thanks!

[@livingbymethod163]

Ok

[@Subaktageen358]

its 100x better than commercial triopod

[@sdphotography4733]

looks perty cool!

[@forgaven3346]

Great Job. But there's one thing, the high-pitched sounds made me laugh so hard 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Anyway, interesting and inspiring content... ❤❤❤❤

[@zerakielvmark]

This doubles as a David Lynch film.

[@EllisDesignandTradeCo]

You really used a CNC to cut that piece out?...Bandsaw would've been faster no?

[@dpmakestuff]

+Husky Wood Working no

[@73superglide62]

turned out great

[@massimodadone3797]

Beautiful project !! Congratulations, I'd like to try too, but I couldn't find where to buy the female thread where you screw the butterfly male to lock the leg length, I don't know if I explained myself at minute 3'51", could you tell me what it's called and where did you buy it Thanks for the help

[@ocediis]

If you still have this tripod, I'd guess that it's built up some serious character by now. You should build a classic-style bellows camera to sit on top of it.

[@sterlingmoore6032]

Very nice work!!!

[@Cloudy_Days.]

🤣 @ how he went around the tripod on 3:02 Lmaoff

[@jimmykurts7571]

This is so cool man! I definitely want to build this design. What is the load capacity?

[@dpmakestuff]

It's supported my DSLR, H4N Microphone, and two LED lights. Thanks!

[@raffyapillidovillanueva2656]

you cannot see the point at the bottom station.

[@dennisdouglas6466]

Nice work

[@carlosflores84]

What kind of wood you used for this project. I’m need to this. But I don’t know if the wool you find at Home Depot will be good enough.

[@strokerace5468]

Excuse me sir. Would you quit being a badass for a few minutes? I'm still working on the pine bench

[@ericholmes-barthelthebonbo2307]

thank god I too have every machine ever made to help me craft this... probably be cheaper just to buy everything I ever wanted :P

[@dpmakestuff]

eric h yeah I burnt all the tools to the ground after finishing this one project.

[@evanilynekhyriem849]

I am a guide so I have to make it and from this video I learn much.

[@livingbymethod163]

O M G So fantastic

[@TrevorHeathPhotography]

Mate that's a cool tripod, the centre links are interesting, is that epoxy on the dowel ends that you spray with a hardener maybe? That part had me wondering. I plan to make one based on your design but will upscale the thickness of pieces as I need something that will hold around 25 kilos or 55lbs. I've just built a crane for my video camera you see that's 16 feet long. I'm testing it using a new tripod I bought that holds an 18lb camera but I'm scared I'm going to ruin the new tripod as it's being pushed beyond it's limits I'm sure. I searched for a while on google and here and liked your design best because there are zero costs for a metal head like many others have, plus you show the method of build perfectly so I have screen grabbed lots of pics! I might upload a small video of it after the build and send you a link. Cheers from New Zealand.

[@dpmakestuff]

Mines holding up good. I used CA glue to hold the dowels in and yes, that's just a quick set spray. If you don't have quick set spray, you can sprinkle the glue with baking soda and it will harden. If you have any specific question feel free to ask. If I had to make the center link again, I would use plywood. That is the weak spot with out a doubt.

[@spencersworkshop4336]

What hardware are you using?

[@trevorwaite8004]

How much weight do you think this tripod could hold?

[@WackyShackTexas]

sweet, i've got to make one. where did you get the camera mount? and are there any plans for this? thanks

[@dpmakestuff]

I had a cheap knock off gorilla pod that I stole the camera mount from and it had a 1/4" bolt so mounting was easy. I didn't have any plans when I started this so I don't have any to share. The lower legs are 1" x 1" and when it's fully collapsed it's about 34" tall. If you bought a 10' 2x4 you'd have enough material to make two so just experiment with it. It's a ridiculously cheap project. I think I spent more on the bolts than the rest combined.

[@MarcosFPV]

awesome I need one for my go pro this will help thanks.

[@acraig5075]

Really really nice.

[@dpmakestuff]

Thanks!

[@salmamuhammad1944]

How much does this cost pls?

[@Pauljansen1233]

Ik vind helemaal mooi

[@valjevocity014]

Can you post some blueprint for this

[@augustolopezf.3076]

Exelente prollecto, felicitaciones, tengo ganas de realizarlo. Gracias. ¿cuanto material de madera utilisaste?

[@dpmakestuff]

mi español es oxidado, pero haré mi mejor esfuerzo. Un 2x6 de 8 pies sería suficiente para hacer 2 trípodes

[@duliriel]

+Dustin Penner thank you for trying really appreciate that. You are a good person.

[@tf1389]

Very cool dude

[@abdielortiz641]

Es muy bueno, puedes especificar todas las medidas? para poder hacerme uno

[@livingbymethod163]

👍

[@hakani85]

çok güzel. eline sağlık. türkiyeden selamlar ;)

[@isacuhac9698]

As

[@bentleygt3716]

you are awesome. thanks for sharing

[@davidkereluk1805]

Tool cost and my time = wooden tripod...

[@dpmakestuff]

Yeah i burned all the tools after I was done building this tripod.

[@johnfriesen]

Amazing

[@baliow]

waw so awsome thank you ما شاء الله

[@Alexandra-Rex]

Very nice.

[@rokujb]

do you sell these?

[@LIFAVIDEO]

extraordinaire

[@nikhildata1274]

Fantastic

[@13marco83]

good job

[@shongololo1659]

the tripod is cheap to make, but the machinery?????

[@dpmakestuff]

SHONGOLOLO 1 spent too much on tools, couldn't afford a tripod.

[@shongololo1659]

Dustin Penner But great anyway

[@bassamadnan6149]

Can be a stand drawing

[@james-jq8sk]

You need $30,000 dollars worth of tools to build it though...

[@dpmakestuff]

No not even close.

[@eleni8412]

nice

[@kishowood1596]

Good👍

[@majkica11]

what did you use at 0:39

[@dpmakestuff]

CNC Router

[@zabirahmed6838]

This is wow

[@dpmakestuff]

+Zabir Ahmed Thanks!

[@thebannedgreenman8939]

What was the adhesive system used at 5:55 ? Ta.

[@dpmakestuff]

Theban Ned Greenman Thats was CA Glue (super glue) and an accelerator. If you dont have access to a spray on accelerator, just sprinkle some basing soda on the glue and it sets instantly.

[@thebannedgreenman8939]

Noted with thanks.

[@vikasverma5798]

I wanna buy this can you send ?

[@duliriel]

Great video. Now would you be so kind to make a video with less sophisticated machinery, more basic.

[@dpmakestuff]

No. If you can't figure out how to build this with simple tools, no amount of how to videos will help haha!

[@duliriel]

Thank you, anyways. Already made one through out this time and it came out really good.

[@grahamefreestone5309]

Very smart indeed.. That would look great stained and with an old browning camera on it. Or with a secret compartment for an SD card. Lol. 👍 🇬🇧

[@gaz781]

good job. no intro at the start of this video

[@dpmakestuff]

Old video!

[@gaz781]

Yeah I thought it may have been. KZbin has been 'recommending' a whole bunch of videos from my subscriptions list lately. Didn't notice the publish date. Keep up the great work.

[@saihara-chan1739]

poggg

[@reetchopra1075]

Mere liye bhi banakar bhej dena

[@davidmorrill2943]

Not jermain to me. Can not afford these tool.

[@Krazyleaf81]

Tuck in your shirt, Bud

[@m.sthegamer3913]

Ghotitu murtu tikatu

[@djgod3784]

Hi

[@ZeeshanAbbasiplanz]

Too hard

[@dpmakestuff]

informatious pro mmm... pretty easy. It took an hour.

[@ZeeshanAbbasiplanz]

I am sorry but that was too hard for like us I made a wooden tripod also make a video from make sure you subscribe see what kind of tripod I made so see you later in that video

[@dpmakestuff]

informatious pro your channel looks like a hot steaming pile of garbage if I’m honest.

[@jamessho2279]

That air gun sounds feminine

[@dpmakestuff]

what does that even mean?

[@jamessho2279]

don't come hijack my comment with all that bullshit!!!! but to answer ur question it doesn't go *pewww* loud enough.

[@367scotty]

yah worst how to only l if you have c &c machine .

[@dpmakestuff]

367scotty you can't figure out how to turn on a bandsaw?

[@alfirst9087]

I don't have a CNC but I want one in the worst way. I may have to get a second job just to pay for my obsession. However, you can build just about anything by hand that a CNC can build with a little imagination and skill. Great work Dustin and thanks for sharing!

[@dpmakestuff]

Al first thanks! CNC routers are insanely cheap these days! Depending on the size you are looking for it's no more than a tablesaw.
