most definitely less than that. $45ish for the plastic for the rails, and less than $20 for the tubing for the shoulder mount. You need to have access to a drill press and tap and die set and a welder though, and a pipe bender if you want the shoulder mount to be shaped like that. I can give you all my measurements and whatever if you want

Here is the first test shoot with the dolly. There is a little shake in the image due to dirt, grass, and a light weight tripod but I think with a little stabilization is would be pretty decent.http://http://www.vimeo.com/21831524

Basicly i just went to my local hardware store and looked around what would work.
it is a very simple design.
25 dollars in total.
i followed this only for the bearings part but other then that i made up my own

the embed button on youtube isn't working so here's the link:

I didn't put in the magnifying glass, it's really hard to attach and the VF would have to be really short for the LCD screen to be in focus. I guess it depends on the magnifying glass you use.

heres my diy handle/rig that im going to use for my t2i and kit lens. i dig it a ton. its pretty much pvc (covered in black electrical tape). and its very sturdy because the joints are all glued together too.
also thats my custom gobroo handle i made too. haha. sketch but it gets the job done with ease.
