DIY video cart - a studio cart for under $300

This is the best way I found to build a video cart (aka film cart). 99% of the components came from IKEA, and the other 1% you probably have at the studio.

Since building this cart, I can't really move without it, and I encourage you to build a similar one too.

I appreciate when you can hear the talent over the rock music track. Not the case here.

I love the fact that the cart is already black, the best color there is.
Amazing solution!

I've been using the same cart in studio for a while now (went for dark wood varnish instead of black paint...) but never thought about the pegboard! Great idea and will be implementing too.

What a great video! I don't even have a studio and now I want a studio cart..

[joostwierenga]

Love this! Ikea is like that, you go in to pick up one thing, you end up with a full cart of stuff; to make you own cart! super smart, only thing missing is some safety edges; dont wanna knock over something and have it roll off, or misplacing a 1/4" and never finding it again. Next to that, and for this price: flawless!

[paper_camera]

Which size pegboard did you get? None of them seemed to fit well. Did you cut it?

[curtisc]

Interesting music video, can't hear the lyrics very clearly though.

[brenster]

Is there any chance you can share how you attached the pegboard to the cart?

[filmedbyco]

Let me know when the "DIY video cart 2.0" is planned to release, I have a few tricks on my sketch book🙃

[joeumali]

cool info, but PLEASE normalize your audio. music is so loud compared to your dialogue. we have a sleeping baby in the house! 😂

וואו רק עכשיו שמתי לב שהסטודיו שלהם הוא של Spekular בגבעת ברנר. מה קרה איתם באמת פשוט נעלמו?

Cant imagine a bigger ripoff than the prices for the video working in industrial area are launghing hard seeing these prices...Hope someone will start doing quality carts around 500 euros...
