Blue Yeti Microphone Shock Mount

thingiverse

I first printed https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2771557 but found that the design was too cramped. The thumb screws would press against the mount pretty much making the whole thing pointless. I also found the tolerances inadequate for my purposes. So using it as inspiration, I built this new shock mount from scratch in Fusion 360. I made the ring larger and more robust, increased the size of the shock cord holes, and changed the spacing so that it is much easier to thread the webbing. The swivel mount is beefier and fits snugly on my mic arm. The stantions are longer, wider, and fit snugly into the clamps, providing more clearance from the thumbscrews. They also have slightly smaller slotted holes so that the 1/8" bungie https://amzn.to/39IlcCt engages with a very satisfying "snap" and holds in place. I printed the ring in Taulman Bridge Nylon at .3mm layer height with 80% infill. The stantions and clamps are printed in ABS at .2mm layer height, all having 4 Top and 4 Bottom layers. I would probably recommend printing the ring at 100% infill for additional torsional rigidity. It works beautifully and I couldn't be happier, especially considering that it cost me $15 to make compared to $50+ for the Blue Shock Mount on Amazon.
