Description

The goal of this design is to create a small, lightweight ORTF holder for the small "clippy" mics found on MicBooster. The mics are held at 17cm spacing at an angle of 110 degrees. I also included a model without the shock mount.

There are 3 files that need to be printed.

  • Support for everything. This attaches to your tripod with a 1/4-20 threaded insert that fits in the bottom of this component. Part number is 93365A160 from McMaster. There are also 8 holes for attaching the rubber suspension. These take 2-56 size threaded insert #93365A110

  • Rubber suspension. This should get printed out of an elastic filament like NinjaFlex or similar. Make sure the setting in your slicer that prohibits passing over open areas is enabled.

  • The floating mount for the microphones. They take two of the 2-56 threaded inserts to allow mounting of the snap part of the "Clippy". You just unscrew it from the alligator clip and re-mount it to the top of the posts. They have a cutout to allow alignment for 110 degrees. Make sure when you put in the threaded insert that it is flush with the top of the post, and no deeper.
