Blue Yeti Nano Boom Mount MK2

I didn't like how my Blue Yeti Nano mic attached to my microphone boom. It made the Yeti Nano very tall, which made it difficult to use my mouse and keyboard underneath the boom and mic, while keeping the microphone off-camera. I also wanted to be able to tilt the microphone back a few degrees, so it would point at my face.

This design solves both of those problems. It shortens the height of the microphone by removing the various metal adapters, and allows the microphone to be tilted.

It reuses the thumbscrews that come with your Blue Yeti Nano's desk stand, and it works with an InnoGear Microphone Arm, which has a 5/8" threaded mount.

The first version of this design left a bit to be desired. I learned a few lessons when designing my RØDE NT-USB Mini Boom Mount, and saw that people were printing the MK1, so I decided to produce this MK2 version.

Unfortunately, my trusty Blue Yeti Nano was left behind at the last second during an international move, so I don't have it to do full testing, or take photos.

Print instructions

I recommend printing the nuts with 100 percent infill, and the mount with 25 percent gyroid infill. These values are included in the 3MF file.

Installation

First, carefully screw the mount onto the 5/8" threads on the back of the mic. Getting the threads lined up on the first time is very important.

Next, screw the lower nut onto the 3/8" threads on the boom arm. Keep going until it fully seats. Then, drop the mic mount and mic over that, and then screw the upper nut onto the remaining 3/8" threads. That's it!
