I've read the articles before about those build it yourself steadycams.
But I was at a loss to figure how it could be much better than just
mounting the camera on the tripod with the legs at the shortest setting
and extending the center post a few inches and use that for the grip.
Besides, if you build one with the horizontal handle, to use it then you
have no hands on the camera - or it's controls.
