updated progress pics
painted, and added a base. not my idea, borrowed from another DIY build. After messing with it today I need to move the 3/8" bolt down more towards the middle for a more balanced attaching point, where its at now it wants to pull the bottom up when more pressure is added. Also will be going with a soft loop end strap rather than the S hook you see in the pics.

Got the tubing cut for mine and bought the flange bushings. Found them at ACE. I'm about to grab the bolts here at work. I don't have the mount you used but I'll figure something out.
I haven't found a 1/4" knob yet to secure the pan/tilt head to the arm. I'm anxious to get this thing assembled!

I noticed you have the strap higher than the bolt, is that causing it to pull up on the bottom?
Also wanted to suggest coating everything in that plasti-dip to make it quieter.
It looks great. I like the extra sections to give you more flexibility. I have one made by gorilla, and it's nice but there is no leveling mechanism and there are only two or maybe three sections.
