AM4 coolers compatible with LGA 1151

Would anybody be interested in a metal (or plastic?) bracket that allows AM4 coolers with stock retention arms to be put on LGA 1511 CPUs?

Like you could put a Wraith Prism on an Intel CPU.

 

I want to start creating that socket converter, but only if there's enough public interest in it. Else I'll be wasting time and money.

That would be nice but many come compatible with both, and the ones that don’t, some people would rather buy a 15$ cooler than a converter of similar price

YES PLEASE. Would be great to have an option to buy from you, and an option to print off ourselves in a 3d printer.

I've been searching for days to save my wraith prism as I have taken the Phanteks PH-TC14PE from my old 4770k after Phanteks sent me an AM4 mount (for free) and placed it on the 3900x. Prism sucked on  the 3900x but I don't want to waste it, so I searched up ways to reuse the prism on LGA sockets for the old 4770k now without a cpu fan. Youtube showed an example of a guy using zip ties to mount a Wraith fairly successfully. I really want to save my Wraith if i can and also want to not buy another CPU fan.
