At first I was like: hm.. way too complicated... but when I saw how ingenious the final product was, I said: damn... that looks awesome!
So glad to see quality content on DIY area from Romania. Good luck!
Thank you very much! I will continue to improve on this topic :)
Metal wire looks cool but doesnt work to absorb vibrations. It just becomes moving but stiff part of construction. It lacks flexibility. I know its a bit too late since video is three years old but you can find elastic band in sewing accessories shop. I dont know how it maybe called at your end but we call it a "hat band".
dude, you’re a genius! very impressive.
Thanks a lot, sir! :)
Im speechless this was amazing I have no words you deserve a lot more subscribers I loved this vid!
Thank you :) I will work hard to get more :)
Is the best "homemade" I've seen.
3D printer makes all the difference...
A very good work.
Sadly I have no 3D printer 😆🤦🏻♂️
Thanks for the kind words! :)
Yes, unfortunately a 3D printer would be required. But also, you can send the 3D files to a local print company and it should be pretty cheap. I think 3DHubs is a good place to start :)
Cool man! Looking forward to the next video. Keep up the great work.
Keep up the great work!
Amazing video!
Thanks a lot, mate! :)
imi place foarte mult canalul tau si ce faci. Am dat subscribe ! ;)
Multumesc! :)
I think I'd make the outer "connecting arms" with a bit wider holes, and hide the connected part of the wires inside it, if yk what I mean.
That's an interesting idea. I may experiment with it to see how it goes :) Thanks a lot!
Okay....there's a major flaw with your shockmount - it won't work since it's all in steel, using elastic bands makes sense, because it has to be isolated from the environment, however, your construction makes a solid connection, almost as solid as solid coupling with no shockmount. Just sayin.
Hi! I am aware of this but I cannot find any rubber bands for a shock mount locally. The design works for any material, either it be steel wire or rubber band :) Currently it works fine and i tested it to see if any shock would be absorbed and indeed, only about 50% of the spike is absorbed. I did not intend to make the best shock mount available, just to inspire you to tinker with what you need :D Thanks for the tip, anyway! :)
Hey! Great video! Do you know if it will fit a Samson C01u condenser mic? Thanks!
Hi Damian! As I've seen on the internet the diameter of the Samson C01u mic is 69mm, which is bigger than the Audio Technica one, so it may not be able to fit it unfortunately :)
@@tinkertv already did it and fits perfectly! In Argentina it cost me half the price of the cheapest mount an almost 25% of the Samson mount.
@@elandamio i'm happy to hear this :)
U should have more subs jeez
Thanks mate :)
@@tinkertv k
How do you only have 148 subscribers?
LAET im asking myself the same wtf
I'll work harder to get more :)
ok, now ill have to buy a 3d printer
“How to 3D print parts to DIY a shock mount”
it looks more expensive than my 60$ mic
grea engleza :)))
wai du iou inglis ?
That doesn`t work
Nice shockmount. Loose the music.
Thanks mate!
@@tinkertv Yeah, the music is too loud, and come on man, you cant find ruber, any ruber instead of metal? kind of defeat the purpose. take a lase cord from your shoes even
!, anyway, cool build excluding the metal wire, very nice finish color.
@@terry- Thanks a lot for the feedback, mate! I already replaced the metal wire as some of you suggested :)
@@tinkertv nice!
It’s cheaper to just buy one and it looks better if you buy it making it is pointless and isn’t even sturdy
ok so you didnt make it a machine did ...what is the difference then just buying one ...lord help us
Yes, technically you are right :) I created the design (so it will look how I wanted) and then the 3D Printer created it. You can buy one for sure, it may be more expensive though :)
@@tinkertv I am just jiving ya lol ...maybe title it how to make a shock mount with 3d printer .
buying a boomarm off amazon is cheaper lol.
Is it? Unfortunately no Amazon here in Romania and only the shipping would make it more expensive :)
WTF steel wire as suspension absorber ??? omg useless mount, but nice to see how this useless mount is made..
