shockmount for 50mm Body ... what do you use ?

[nashkato]

for my DIY builds i mostly use DIY build bodies from 50 mm (app 2 inch) outer diameter brass tubes .
i do have some spiders for them , but they´re all cheap and bad quality and /r annoying handling .

Does anybody have any suggestions , except diy , for a good shockmount for a reasonable price ?

thx

...a series of options ranging from 48-58mm diameter priced at only $29.99 plus shipping...these same shockmounts sell for $49-99 on eBay...

I like Rycote. Little pricy, but worth it:

Hi,

a few month ago I was also on the search for shockmounts for my 2 G7  ;D ;D
I've used a 50mm brass tube, 2mm thickness leading to an ~800g mic 

I ordered 2 Z3 - 47fet  from advancedaudio (http://advancedaudio.ca/collections/shock-mounts/products/z3-47fet).
The upper clamp has a bit smaller diameter (~48mm). I changed both locking screws (longer ones)
and now it works fine. Great support as well.

ROCK-ON!

P.S.:
Jakob, great shockmounts, this is the real "G7-Jakob-Style"
Can't wait to post some pics of my G7, i'll tried to follow the real "G7-Jakob-Style"

Made my own. Made 2 pressure clips top and bottom to hold the mic securely in place. The outer part is made from PVC pipe section. Works well. See pic.

Kindest regards,
