DIY Ribbon Microphone RCA 77 Mic WARNING: TRYPOPHOBIA

Caution: Trypophobia. Here's how I made my DIY microphone. It's my version of the iconic RCA 77 ribbon mic. It's a ribbon microphone. And it's made from wood!
The parts are cut on a cnc vinyl plotter(aka cricut). Then, they are glued together and sanded into shape. The magnets are then glued into place. The ribbon mounting plates are made from heavy copper tape, and then a thin aluminum ribbon is corrugated and mounted between the magnets.
This ribbon motor is attached to a pipe, which sends the out of phase signals from the rear of the mic through a special chamber to keep the signal quality strong.
A wind baffle is made from cotton gauze and wood veneer.
Then the entire thing is mounted inside a wood enclosure.
