Anyone know of any online sources for building your own crane?

I found these three:

Numero Uno (http://www.angelfire.com/movies/nobudgetsfx/boom.html)

Numero Dos (http://www.jorenclark.com/studentfilms/jib/jib.html)

Numero Tres (http://home.pacifier.com/~tmnathe/boom.html)

These 3 are all good, but I am trying to compile all the info I can get before I start building my own.

It's okay.

I found a nice little website devoted to indie filmmaker's Home Built Stabilizers and Rigs. It's called Home Built Stabilizers (www.homebuiltstabilizers.com). There's some good tips, and nice pics (with links to the filmmaker's home page).

But still, any more info would be greatly appreciated.
