Up to this point I have really been concentrating on the design portion of this build. I ordered my carbon fiber rods almost a month ago hoping they would be here by now, but seems the slow boat from China was slower than even I expected...

So, a quick trip to the local hardware store and $2.50 later I now have temporary rods (5/8" wood dowel) to use to build a prototype. My goal is to have the unit functional by this Friday as I want to shoot some video.
