Spencer have you thought of doing a ELA M251 body? Chunger has a mod to his C12 for this mic, but the only body I know of is the Beesneez and it's like 400 bucks. Just a thought.

Thanks,

Mike

Hay! Spence,
Nice!, What size copper pipe did you use?.

 

[Spencerleehorton]

Hi Zandru,

I used 51mm Copper pipe, from one length of 250mm, was enough from this length to do rails, end and capsule mount.

Spence.
