Artillery Sidewinder X1 Left X Cover with Cable Strain Relief

thingiverse

This is a 2 pc Left Cover Plate for an Auxiliary Sidewinder X1 V4 with additional ribbon cable strain relief. Both pieces slide in from the left. There is a pocket to accept a small 5x6x25mm piece of rubber that is glued or double stick taped into the smaller ribbon support. The support is then slid on first behind and past the ribbon. The main cover is then carefully slid on and butted flush against the end of the X carriage. The support can then be slid back behind the ribbon and onto the main cover tab very carefully. Care needs to be taken with the ribbon to make sure you don't damage the ribbon or pull the ribbon out of its plug. You do need some pressure (not a lot) with the rubber as it is intended to hold the ribbon in place. I also took some small 1/4" strips of black tape and placed them on front of the 2 ribbon connectors so they don't stand out so much. Due to the fan sliding over when the X axis homes, the entire board isn't covered. No supports needed. These were printed in ABS, but any material should do.
