For those of you in the google group but not on the announcement list, I just sent out this email:
TL;DR the Motorized MakerSlider 1.0 is out and it's available for $495 with a 6-week lead time.
Will and I are really excited that the pocket dolly now sees the light of day, and has garnered interest from some videographers. We hope we can keep making and improving this thing as the community grows!
Regards,
Duane
