Anet E12 Heat Bed Cable Holder (Support)

thingiverse

EDIT: Version 3.1 has replaced the original, featuring a superior design with two strategically placed zip ties that prevent wiggling. This innovative add-on for the Anet E12 streamlines heat bed cable management, eliminating stress caused by loose connections. The unit securely screws onto the bearing block mount, utilizing longer M4x12 screws to ensure optimal thread engagement. A deliberate design feature includes a slot for a 4-inch zip tie to pass through and secure the cable in place. Additionally, the add-on's angled design deflects the heat bed cable away from the Y limit switch by 45 degrees, minimizing potential interference. Note: A critical observation was made during testing; when sliced with Slic3r PE, the model's ribbed feature delaminated due to a solid layer being printed on top. However, Cura successfully printed it open without this issue, suggesting that results may vary depending on the slicing software used.
