The goal of this headbasket replacement is to physically reduce the XM8500's proximity effect, without doing an SM7B imitation build.
The windsock this build uses is the Thomann WS NT1 with a straight internal diameter of 40 mm and depth of 90 mm.
The head basket thread is an estimated M33 x 1.0, scaled up 2% to adjust for the material. Beware this is notably different from the Shure SM58's 1.25" 28 UN-2B thread.
The retainment notches for the capsule inside the basket have a shallow bevel below and should print without supports.
STEP included for convenient remixing.
