After talking with my professor, we agreed that the hardest part of this project is still going to be finding w way to protect the microphone element and the point of connection to the body pack. What we plan on doing is taking one of our microphones to a 3D printer on campus and making a sort of negative model to use as our guinea pig. We're also going to try a plastic case that opens up somewhere and possibly some foam inside if we make it big enough to be somewhat universal. We're also toying with the idea of whether or not the plastic should be wrapped/covered in something like silicone to make it moisture-resistant. I'm going to try and get a tutor to show me around the space our 3D printer is in, and then we're going to get to work. Hopefully one of the next couple of posts I have is about our first attempt or two with the Mic Box. Until then...
