I think it was a just place to ask. Has anyone learned anything that may help them in building a rig? Just thought I'd shared mine.
1. I understood that one should never take the most essential thongs for granted.
2. The Gimbal is the most important part of the sled
3. The arm is the most important components of the 3 components; vest, arm and sled set.
4. Many trial and errors
5. built to fit the size of your budget.
6. Build for the future if you are going to use the rig as often as possible.
Well, so far this is what I gather from reading both books.
