Making different thread for the setup.
Examining the Lego bricks. See if we need additional parts. 
The plan is to connect moco stepper to Lego train, for creating frame by frame movement on rail track.
Need to create a join for A (stepper to gears) & B (gears to rail)
This plan is for this cut - longest camera movement in the trailer
Using InstaMorph to create plastic join. Not pretty but does the job.
The stop-mo loco - locomotive for stop-motion shooting :D
Testing with Dragonframe software. The plan works so far.
The locomotive travels too slow. Took an hour to shot 40 frames (the cut length is 4 seconds). Need to use differential gear instead of reducer.
Designing a new Lego train with gear rack to maximize the precision for Dragonframe’s frame by frame recording.
Cheap & fun slider made with @LEGO_Group bricks! \o/
Keyframes in software & real world.
When the @LEGO_Group setup works, everything is awesome.
Checking the track & platform.
