Quadcast (S) Post/Monitor Stand (3.5cm dia) Mount/Bracket/Clamp

This is a mount to attach a Quadcast S (should work for original Quadcast) to a 3.5cm diameter post or monitor stand.

I've personally used it to bring the mic up off the desk, for a cleaner look and so I can slide my keyboard all the way to the back of the desk without hitting the mic.

Versions: There are 2 main versions and 2 sub versions of this stand.

Main: “MicClampF90” has the mic vertical inline with the post, this is the version I've used in the photos. “MicClampF” is the version where the mic is horizontal vs the vertical post, if you want the mic closer and horizontal under the front bottom of your monitor.

Sub: 2 versions for both with or without a slot for a TPU grommet. I doubt this grommet actually provides any vibration dampening, with how tight the clamp must be, but it was fun to design. Grommet vs no grommet on the models is indicated by the suffix “Grommet” or “NoG”.

There's a 3d printed bolt and nut for the bracket, but I found that it was tight enough that press fit was secure enough.

Hardware: M3x20 OR M3x16. M3x16 will have the bolt end flush with or one thread short of the nut face. This probably won't matter with how little force the bolts actually have to hold. Use the M3x20 if you don't mind some extra threads past the nut face.

Scale: Bracket fits perfect with Bambu P1S, preheated chamber (45ish C) Bambu ASA. TPU grommet might need a mm or 2 snipped off both sides, height is ok. If the mic is too hard to push into the bracket, scrape off a little bit of the inside with a flathead screwdriver, it won't need much.

Install: It is probably easier to attach the mic to the bracket before installing it on the post. The mic is a snug press fit, support the mic nub that slides into the bracket with a finger behind as you push it in. Don't push directly on the mic ‘cage’ to get it in, you might break it.
