Shock mount for microphone AKG 120 with a 3d printed Pop Filter

For the parts with a thread in them - microphone stand mount, the screw for it and the basket (has a thread for the AKG 120 microphone inside) set as low layer height as possible, I used 0.1mm.

Instead of the 3D printed screw you can use any M8x25 screw as well. And in case you decide to print it (like I did) make sure to set 100% infill rate.

All the other parts can be printed with 60-80% infill rate.

Pop Filter

For the Pop Filter only the frame is modelled (150mm in diameter and 4mm thick borders). The filter itself is composed of the 3 raft layers. I set the distance between the model and the raft to zero to make it stick to the model. Each layer's rotation is incremented by 45º.

Each layer of the raft is printed with the following settings:

0.4mm nozzle

150% Extrusion width percentage

0.3mm layer height

50% infil rate

To assemble it you'll need any 3mm rubber band. I used textile coated rubber band from the DIY shop.

Make two circular bands. For this cut two pieces 360mm each and connect the ends of each one together using the 3d printed connectors applying the instant glue.
