360 GoPro Timelapse Rig DIY

Posted on September 19, 2011 by Adam Amaral

Well I leave today for Hawaii and with just a couple of hours to spare I built this 360 timelapse rig. I got the idea from the GoPro forums. Essentially its just a 2 hours sprinkler timer with some holes drilled in it and then mounting the GoPro on top using the GoPro tripod mount. I cut off the side spickets with a dremmel. The timer spins in small increments over the course of two hours allowing for a 360 timelapse. I did some quick testing in Venice, but the real test will be with some awesome surroundings in Maui. Gotta thank my roommate Bill Swano for helping me with assembly. When I get back I’ll hopefully have some sweet footage to share!
