Partially inspired by Norfolksoundman on GS Remote, I recently took the plunge into 3D printing. The first thing I have designed are these small mounting bases which fit Rycote Lyres and Radius Hoops.

https://www.printables.com/model/1269383-rycote-radius-shock-mount-basesI made 3 versions:
- Single-pocket for very light mics such as Line Audio or active capsules
- Triple-pocket with outer pocket centers 25 mm apart (same as Radius RAD mounts)
- Triple-pocket with outer pocket centers 45 mm apart (same as Rycote INV-6)
Indexing marks along the bottom for easy angle alignment:
- Tallest marks are at 0, 90, 180, 270 deg.
- Second-tallest are 45 deg rotated from tallest marks
- Shortest are 10 deg rotated from their immediate neighbor (convenient for 20 deg angle omnis, 110 deg ORTF cardioid, etc.)
