Construction could not be simpler.

1. If there are any burrs, lips, or edges that may interfere with the placement of the microphone, sand or saw them off.

2. Paint the attachment if desired. I recommend flat black as it will not glare in the middle of your scene. If you want you can try to paint the painter's pole as well but it will probably not stick to the metal for very long.

3. Drill a hole into the attachment for the 3/8" screw to fit into. The hole does not need to be tight but should be fairly snug.

4. Screw the attachment onto the painter's pole.

5. Place the microphone on the attachment, lining up the holes and proceed to screw in the screw.

6. If needed, use a nut or bolt on the screw to make the distance it must be turned shorter.

7. If possible, you may want to add a second screw so the microphone does not wiggle back and forth.

That's it, your done!

I am a filmmaker, student, and tinkerer. I love designig and building devices instead of purchasing them. Instructables is a great way to do that and share with others how to do the same...
