Or build your own. Home Depot and buy some roofing flashing, or sheet copper
from a salvage yard would be nice, I have some here that I use for ground
straps. Cut out a circle then take a pie slice and bring the open ends
together and pop rivet. You can make it as big and as deep as you like. You
could solder too I suppose. Don't forget the hole in the middle for the mike
or pickup device. Let your imagination run amok.
