    Hopefully, its not 'easy', it just gets easier when you've done it so many times lol

    Bren's Sunflower 172 - Engine Rebuild

    Unfortunately all earth straps are new, starter motor mounting faces are clean, battery is brand new. Just typical Renault quality, I went through 6-7 in about 15 trackdays with them not being able to cope with the heat, its only a 10 minute job to change through the top.

    DSLR Camera Slider

    Yeah, plenty of ways of doing it. All depends on type of motor, gearset, rail etc. Worm drive on a DC motor are the most powerful and can hold a LOT of weight, as they cant freewheel backwards if they loose power. I only used a belt to give precise accurate movement with the stepper - can run it...

    Just uploaded a couple of photos if they are of any use to anyone. This is a Continental HTD (5mm Tooth, 9mm Width) Timing Belt, a 24 tooth pulley and two idlers (removed from an LTO Tape Drive). Motor, Belt and Idler Detail by f0xy, on Flickr IGUS Drylin Rail and Carriage by f0xy, on Flickr...

    Cool. I nearly didnt bother with Arduino, could have just created a simple PCB and controlled the driver/shutter from USB to a laptop and write the software there, but saves lugging it around. Plus the Arduinos are dirt cheap and have thousands of libraries ready to use!

    DSLR Camera Slider

    Yeah ML. Its very good, especially for video focusing and every other function it adds! Sorry only just seen the replies. I'm running an Arduino UNO R3, with a 16x2 LCD and 6 push buttons (L,R,U,D,Select,Reset) Using a 2A Stepper Motor Driver with 1/16th Microstepping support (200step motor...

    Yup, same IGUS rail on that one too. Hes using a servo instead mind. I went for a stepper so I could microstep it with a driver and get 3200 steps to a single revolution

    Indeed... this cost less than 1/5th of the price mentioned, took a few hours to cut/drill/bolt things together. I'm using it for both video/timelapse, settings via a small LCD. All runs from a 12v battery. The below is just doing video, timelapse does move-shoot-move to whatever the user...

    Its been off for a while - the only useful thing was the part numbers, prices were from years ago (not had a clio for 2 years). I can put it back up sometime if part numbers are of any use.

    Canon & 50Mm

    Just got rid of my 40D for a 5DMk2. Used lots on the 40D in the past 4 years, 300 f2.8s, 70-200 f2.8s etc. Using 50mm 1.8 on the 5D at the moment, its nice. Picked it up for £70. Much prefer full frame now, although from a budget point of view its not good! The 100mm f2 and 28mm f1.8 are...

    Mk1 Clio Hybrid 172

    You'l need the right length belt also. There are other ways of doing it, like using Mk1/Volvo brackets with the right alternator (usually a lot cheaper than cup brackets).. There is quite a bit on here about those
  22. F

    Mk1 Clio Hybrid 172

    Wrong brackets by the sound of it. You ideally want some from a Cup so you can set the tension manually. Guessing you bought the car already done?

    Mk1 Clio Hybrid 172

    Are you using an alternator mounting that allows tension to be set? Or have you just removed the power steering and air con pumps from the original brackets?

    Contour HD 1080p Camera - Mounts + Batteries + Memory Card

    Well considering ones without the extra mounts/waterproof case (60quids worth) go for that, not at the moment sorry! Yeah by USB. I've got an official Contour Car charger though, which is the only one that lets you charge and record at the same time. This will be included in the sale. :) See...

    Contour HD 1080p Camera - Mounts + Batteries + Memory Card

    Others without the extras have gone for £120-130, I think it will go for a bit more than that with the stuff included though.
