I didnt backhand anyone... I was polite, but IMO and I say "OPINION" the SHRIGG looks homemade... obviously there is a market for the REWO cage or else they wouldnt have made it... now imagine me selling my cage overseas... 300$ US (if thats the price) is 150 Euro... which kills there 5 something Euro price... Im also making accessories for the cage... think RED Modular system for GH2. If you like your Shrigg Rig then GREAT Keep it, im not trying to take anyones thunder... I just want a cage that looks sexy, makes my GH2 look sexy, and perform like a professional camera, which it does in the video performance side, but fails miserably on the exterior and buildup... the thing is Im listening to ALL of you guys... Putting my MONEY out there to make what y'all want... I dont have to. I could make JUST ONE COPY FOR ME... but I was taught to share, and dammit I'm gonna do right by my mamma and share the love :)

but feel free to continue telling me what you want everyone :)

Yeah I like the cage you made... But again i have high end clients. So I hate showing up with DIY looking stuff... it just doesnt fall well so DIY steadicams made from pipe and painted brigght green are good and all, but not in my field... Im also shooting the summer olympics this year... not only stills with my 7D, but I will also be shooting plenty of GOP1 baby!!!! need something that looks as good as it performs

again the casting is being done on Nov. 10th for the prototype... it will probably be around the new year when I start looking into production cages... but they will be a good product.

optional self powering cage with build in hdmi and mic conectors plus a 12v out for monitor. That would be really cool. The cage with all the electronics build in.

Ill update it as soon as I have stuff to update

I am also making a rail mount system for the unit I have found that powers my GH2 for hours and its cheap, I will also be making these on request. But I honestly think this is the best powering option for the GH2... http://personal-view.com/talks/discussion/831/rig-powering-options#Item_18 look for my post about the Alien bee Vegabong mini... ITS AMAZING il make a video about it later

Im doing casting for one reason, Once it is cast an inch thick I can remove material from the inside, and the outside to make it the thickness I want, all the removed aluminum will go back into the stock pile to be re melted down for another casting. Once I have the full size an finished prototype I will make a negative, it will be smooth as the final, so when I cast it out of that mold no cutting will be required. all that will need to be done is the hand drilling of the holes, obviously precision drilled on a press, not a hand drill ok vitaliy, its not gonna be a piece of sh*t, made by some nobody. the only reason each piece will have to be drilled by hand is because a cast cant have holes put in it, because the mold wouldnt be able to separate. Since I will be drilling by hand I may take custom orders with different layouts and either 1/4 20 or 3/8 holes... or both on same rig like others

I can't wait to see it, need some good protection cage to my GH2 ...

The cage is getting cast on Nov. 10th company is busy until then... they are casting my prototype for guess how much? $1

@brianluce I have big clients including Rocky Patel Cigar Company and cannot have cheap, crappy looking equipment... just looks bad, Im not just about function, I like style... I want the GQ of GH2 cages, with functions I and others want... The Shrigg Jigg is a nice cage but it looks like it was just put together with random pieces of metal

@PerryWilson
Have you checked the Shrig Jigg yet? I have one and like it a lot. What would your design do that the Shrigg doesn't?

@PerryWilson

This is not (and never will be) a place to talk on such level, Perry.

I have strong feeling of another endless talks here. I'll keep it watching for few days and will close if it will be so and I won't see things I talked about.
