Title: Strobe Pack Caddys?
Post by: Chris Barrett on April 12, 2017, 10:04:25 pm

I just picked up a couple D4 4800s for the studio.  I was thinking of building little rolling platforms for them to scoot around on... unless there's already a product I'm not aware of?

Thanks!

Speedotron used to make one: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/50168-REG/Speedotron_13510_Heavy_Duty_Dolly_for.html (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/50168-REG/Speedotron_13510_Heavy_Duty_Dolly_for.html)

Must be a few floating (rolling) around out there.

I had those back in the day with my Speedo 4800 packs.  They were very helpful.  I would think you could fashion some nice custom dollies from wood that could do the very same thing.

Home Depot--- 11" x 16" dolly.  http://www.homedepot.com/p/Devault-Enterprises-16-in-x-11-in-Multi-Purpose-Black-Garage-Dolly-DEV4000GB/203613347

I know there are other sizes available, different makes.  Uline also carries dollies.
