Has anyone tried any of these camera jibs? I was about to start to have our shop fabricate a counterweighted arm with an adjustable base but if I can just modify a higher end jib...I may go that route

Backstory- Need to get out of windows and roofs fairly frequently so i would like a flexible solution for our Faro M70

Re: Scanning out windows/roofs
with over 200 views and no comments, this is not looking promising
Maybe I will turn this into my fab thread here as I have our shop build an adjustable dolly on casters with an extendable arm
Unless anyone can convince me to go the jib/boom route

Re: Scanning out windows/roofs
very interesting but .. expensive solution.
For my BLK360 it would take a "light" version that should only support 1 kg.
You could eliminate the wheels of the lower part ... A "normal" fixed tripod would be enough or better yet ... you could have only the extendable arm (with the counterweight) to be fixed on a normal topographic tripod (5/8 " )
Furthermore, once the arm has been extended, it must be possible to block every movement (scanning requires that the support is fixed).

Re: Scanning out windows/roofs
One solution might be this with a wifi connection to the scanner
