I don't think you can get as smooth moving pictures with this as you
would with a Steadicam Merlin. This $14 one is made out of plumbing
pipes and it will tire you sooner than you can say "action"...
If it was made from PVC piping, then I would say it stands a chance to
be somewhat efficient, of course it depends on the design.

My 1.5 cents... :)

One could always use more advanced material, perhaps PVC piping. It's easy to 
drill, easy to put together and fairly lightweight.

I've got one of these steadycams. It's quite useful although it isn't perfect 
by any means . 
Good value for money

What was learned here is that no machinations work the same for different
people.
