About this model

As you can see, my Blue Yeti has suffered some damage to its mini USB connector (I will replace it soon), but maybe this little thing will help you prevent damage to yours. Basically it forces you to push the USB cable in and out exactly straight (as opposed to on an angle which will eventually damage the USB connector on the mic). This version also allows you to mount the Yeti on a floor stand since it doesn't obstruct the bottom thread. Printed on the Prusa mk3s with standard PLA, with elephant feet compensation set to 0.2 mm (and as you can see, I have the z offset pretty high), it should fit in place exactly with zero wiggle room.
