Hey, I've been interested in these swivel mounts too and unfortunately the best/only option is really Neumann. I think the one in the photo is the M49/U47 version but the 87/67 compatible one is called the IC4. Various mic manufacturers like Beesneez and Flea make them but I've been unable to buy one separately. I'd really love to see somebody release an affordable version of these--the IC4 is 500 bones new and not much cheaper used. Crazy money for a mount. I have an IC4 and thought about having a machine shop duplicate the parts, but there are a surprising number of machined interlocking parts that would probably put that out of reach for hobby purposes. It's a shame since there's nothing more badass than a mic hanging upside down from the hard mount. BTW--has anyone seen that video where those charlatans hung a 47 upside down directly from the mic cable? (!)

Yes. Sadly I can’t locate affordable ones
 
These would be a perfect project for an enterprising 3D printing shop, plus off-the-shelf hardware bits; even if they didn't look as polished as the Neumann piece.

I imagine the electrical connection inserts are available separately.

The one for the 251, too.

Maybe they can be rented, and then make casts of the parts.

No rocket science engineering here; the rotating stand mount piece could probably be adapted from another, more affordable mount.
