A resourceful reader, Tom Meyer has kindly sent us a link to his own little DIY masterpiece, the skater dolly. This three-wheeled tabletop dolly uses three rollerbalde wheels for mobilization, and has indentations suitable for using with a tripod. The construction looks top-notch, and it's heavy duty enough to support an XL1. Quite beautiful! Thanks for sharing, Tom! If you have links to your own DIY work, send 'em in.

1. Nice dolly! I believe those are Rollerblade wheels though. There is a big difference is in the width of the wheel.

2. Yes, rollerblade wheels... I realized that after thinking about it more. Must edit!

3. I'm wondering if the wheels are too close together. If the wheels were on the tips beyond where the tripod holes are, would you get a more stable glide? It sure looks nice though.
