DF-WXY3 | new gen dual-axis winder

Vuong NguyenLeave a comment

Together with single axis new gen winder, we also developed a dual-axis version based on our new movement mechanic. This is a bit tricky and may be a little uneasy to see it how it work if compare to other popular or traditional winder. But, I did tried it a few time and I kind of like the smooth feeling it brought and the anti-slip feature is quite value. That’s why we think this could be very useful for stop motion animator.

Curious? If pass by our Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam, just come, we will let you testing this out.

Hello. Today we proudly introduce our latest designs on stop motion winder collection, for both single and dual axis. This design we are using different mechanic compare to other popular winder you’ve ever seen on the market out there. This design giving some advantages such as smoother and more precise moving step, which crucial for high frame-rate animation (12, 24 or even more). The locking mechanic is also simplified and more stable, meaning less parts need to be made and adjust than before, so we can build it in shorter time and less headache when fine-tune before shipping (phew).

Ah, we called this Karakasa Kozō – a funny, childish yokai (goblin) in old Japanese folk stories 😁.

Another work of art (forgive us, we love our product too much…) has been released today, a dual-axis stop motion winder with compact movement block. There are pair of sensitivity adjustable screws on each axis-blocks, so animator can quickly adjust the grip-ness of winder according to his/her convenience.

We don’t do much of this, so there is just only two winders has been hand-built. When both of them are sold out, please let us know your order, we will make another winder for you.

Our latest rig-arm with bigger balls and (yes) bigger joint plates has been available on our Shopee e-commerce store. Bigger ball-joints mean sturdier and lift more weight compare to our V3 standard ball-joint. V4 is an upgrade for those who want sturdier ball-joints or often over twist the hex key during animating, or for food and macro photographers who want stronger rig-arm for moderate weight objects.
