Anet A8 Top Cable Guides

thingiverse

I designed this item to prevent the sharp edge on top of the acrylic frame from digging into the moving wire bundle that leads to the printer head on the Anet A8's top. The smaller version 1 files should work for most A8s. I uploaded a left-sided '...L.stl' file and a right-sided '...R.stl' file, allowing you to choose whichever side suits your printer configuration best. The larger version 2 files can be used as longer left (2a) or right (2b) side protectors, or you can print both for complete protection. The version two files have interlocking tabs in the middle that keep them lined up; these tabs may need trimming or sanding to fit perfectly depending on your printer's accuracy. *Regarding version 2: Version 2 is still a work-in-progress. I cannot verify the fit with the stock LCD installed since I no longer possess it. I added cutouts for the LCD screws and standoffs, but I am unsure if they are sufficiently large or if the PCB might obstruct them. If you print V2 and encounter issues with the fit around the LCD, please inform me of the adjustments you believe are necessary. I will make modifications and upload new files to test out.
