Stronger, Improved Wall Mount for Rode PSA1 boom
After using an existing model from Makerworld (credit below) I found it was not strong enough, actually falling off my wall eventually and damaging the wall in the process due to the weight of a high quality and heavy Rode microphone in conjunction with the Rode PSA1 mic boom. Determined to fix this, I set out to remix and redesign and improve it for my use but also created additional options and updates for others use - see below for remix improvements.
Boost MePlease consider boosting for the effort that went into redesigning and testing this model for multiple improvements and options!
Remix improvements
- Stronger fillet with a better radius at top curve to remove point of weakness.
- Thicker base option to increase mass and reduce weakpoints as an extra option.
- Multiple options of fillet design for user choice in addition to 1 & 2 options.
- Additional spacer option for user choice to assist in wall mounting, compatible with original design.
Print and Install Recommendations
- Print with a strong material, recommend PLA-Tough or PetG, but PLA can be used with caution for heavy setups.
- Print with at least 5 walls and at least 40%+ infill, using a strong infill type, I utilised Adaptive Cubic at 60% for good measure.
- Post process to ensure all screw holes and central void for PSA 1 shaft is clear of any print support or debris.
- Secure to your wall using a stud point, or strong wall anchors if using a heavy mic and boom setup.
