HOW TO MAKE A TRACK DOLLY ~ LOW-BUDGET FIMMAKING (UK)



Envoye par: rickvanman
Video Description:
There didn't seem to be much help on this subject on YouTube, so I decided to make a "How-to" video.
I just Googled "how to make a track dolly", and some of the sites I originally used to make my track dolly no longer appear to be there. However, Googling "track dolly skateboard wheels" turned up lots of useful sites that should help you. DETAILS AND PARTS LIST: Total cost of the dolly was
about £80. Total Dolly size = 2ft wide x 3ft long. Type of pipe used for track = 32mm PVC waste pipe. Angle alluminium width = 2in x 2in at 3mm thick. (2 x 3ft lengths) Carriage bolts: 6 x 4in (to hold the angle aluminium to the board). Carriage bolts: 16 x 2in (to bolt the wheels to the ang
le aluminium) MAIN BOARD: 2 X sheets of 2ft X 3ft 7-PLY sheets screwed together with 30mm self-tapping screws. Skateboard wheel spacers x 16 skateboard wheels x 16. Dia: 50mm (52mm are also ok) Bearing assemblies x 32 NOTE: Angle aluminium is a lot easier to work with than angle iron - w
hich is very heavy and hard to drill & cut. It also goes rusty and is generally not much fun to handle.
ALSO: Try to get the wheels positioned closer together so they sit on the upper/top portion of the track rather than middle/sides of the track. (Or in other words - go for a small/narrow "L" shape area for the track to sit in) I found wider-spaced wheels were trying to bend the pipe and make the
dolly harder & more jerky to push with weight on it.
Enjoy & please comment if you watch.

never mind! we ended up using 76 mm inline skating wheels, and it works beautifully. we did have to space the wheels a little bit from the board, however. we felt inline skate wheels might be a quieter solution.
