Well, this is my approach to a "BIG" problem - smooth camera movement.
Instead practice, human always want to solve problem with gadgets.
I use an already old principle of stabilizing object ... known on the ships, from centuries.
And here it is..... gyroscope.

I choose plexiglas for this. Easy to work with. I own a camera and according this dimensions i choose the diameter of rings.
First i drill on opposite sides a hole for a small axe from both sides (1,5 mm) deep enough to match two rings. Then I cut on turning machine first ring out.
You can cut this with simple thin hand model saw...but on cost longer time and need to be after carefully finished.

What you have built is not a gyroscope, but a gimbal with a counterweight. You did a really nice job. Making the gimbal is usually the big challenge for steady cam type projects.
