I am Csaba Bankhardt, and I live in Hungary. With a career as a Key and Dolly Grip since 1987 in the filming industry, I have amassed a wealth of experience and insight.
Many professionals prefer working with their own specialized tools, and I found myself in the same boat. Unable to find equipment that met my exact needs, I began designing and engineering tools tailored to my unique workflow.
My custom tools quickly gained popularity among my colleagues abroad, who requested their own. Since 2012, I have been crafting these specialised instruments, now found in England, Italy,Ireland, Scotland, Czech Republic, and Hungary.
While my tools may look familiar, each one has been meticulously refined to address the shortcomings I’ve observed over my 30-year career. I also offer bespoke equipment designed to meet individual requirements.
Though I sometimes have ready-to-ship items, most of my work is custom-made to order, ensuring each piece meets the highest standards of quality and functionality.
