Gorillapods are pretty versatile tripods.You can find them for between $20-$50 depending on the size or build one for a few dollars in parts. Wanna know what’s even cooler than a Gorillapod? A Gorillapod on wheels. Yep, just bolt on some inline skate wheels and your fancy new tripod is now a hybrid tripod dolly. If you’re curious what you could do with something like this, then check this out. [Thanks, Udi!]
Gorillapods are also available in the Maker Shed!











Looks cool, but I imagine it would be pretty easy to accidentally bump the wheels out of alignment.
Ok, I just looked at that CineSkates Kickstarter link. Those looks awesome. I was going to say, these ones could benefit from some kind of quick-release for the wheels. It looks like they thought of that with CineSkates.
