Anet A8 Y-axis easy chain

thingiverse

While I was a fan of the cable chain files from Ryks, I wasn't a fan of spending ages trying to feed the cable links through each individual chain whenever I built more frame upgrades. I had a problem with my machine homing on top of the chain, where the hot extruder would then try to melt with the links. Ryks already solved the latter issue with the endstop part found here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1900982. This redesign moves the cable to the other side and replaces the tops with removable clips for easier tear-down and swap-out. The links and clips are kept separate for easier customization according to individual preference. For the Anet A8, I recommend 16 chain links and clips, or 17 clips if you want to secure to the frame mount. Print Settings: Printer: Anet A8 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 20 Notes: Most parts should be able to print flat with little trouble; supports were left on by accident but shouldn't be needed. No brim or raft was required, although Kapton tape was used.
