Vicki, Earnest Ursus is not stuffed, and hence sadly can claim only two dim=
ensions. I added a photo of him nose-on.

Angle =3D approx 60 degrees, spacing about 6 inches. The mic holders are hi=
nged to lie flat against the head in storage or transport. Material cost ~ =
5 dollars for 1/4 inch plywood pvc, hinges, and furry cover (to eliminate r=
eflection off the head)
Aloha,
David
