I decided to make a very large balanced arm camera mount for my shop so I wouldn't constantly be fighting with having a tripod in my way. Really this was an excuse to try to step up my metal casting... with some mixed results. I had to build a new foundry furnace, flasks, make patterns... basically start from scratch to make proper set up for casting aluminum. And I've learned a lot along the way.

Also: a shout out to the Channel RotarySMP for sending people my way. If you're not watching his channel already, check it out here: youtube.com/c/RotarySMP

I promise I'll still mostly make stuff out of rusty junk and not just buy shiny things with your money.
