Artillery Sidewinder X1 Base Cover

thingiverse

A Cover to protect the ribbon cable at the base of the gantry. This also covers wires to the z-axis stepper motors. The left side version could be 'flipped' (in a slicer) to use on the right side. However I have supplied a separate right side version that is slightly different. The difference is only the in the gap on the left side version for the ribbon cable to pass though. The right side does not have a ribbon cable gap. I like the clean appearance of the machine after fitting these covers. To fit the left side cover, first remove the plastic strip that holds the cable for the filament sensor. The plastic strip may refitted above the cover to provide additional support for the filament sensor cable (cut to length). Spare plastic strip can be stored in the frame. The covers are as high as possible for the ribbon connector at the base (any higher then the gantry would collide when at the lowest position).
