Universal Elastic Microphone Shockmount

thingiverse

Austin Microphones "Dog Collar" universal elastic shock mount. You'll need: - The threaded bottom part from a cheap microphone clip. - FOUR rubber or silicone "no-slip grip" hair ties (not "felt" or "fabric") - Two bands over the top edge, two over the bottom edge. See the photos Not recommended for scaling to make larger/smaller openings. Here's why: - The thickness of the pan-handle will change, and it won't fit in a standard mic clip. - Smaller "studs" around the outside won't hold the hair-ties as well. - Scaling-up for height (Z-axis) separates the elastic bands more, and might help stabilize tall microphones, but the pan-handle hole gets elongated, too. You can also stretch the bands in different criss-cross patterns across the opening, to make them tighter and accommodate different size microphones. Use at your own risk!! I'm not responsible for your microphone! Visit www.AustinMics.com for DIY Ribbon Microphones and other audio projects. NOTE: The gray microphone in the photo is a vacuum-tube microphone that weighs more than 1 lb. (~.5kg). For heavy microphones like this, you will need to cross the elastic bands in the center before putting the microphone through, so that they grip tighter.
