thingiverse

This is a cable management system designed specifically for the X Motor wires on Prusa i3 MK2s and Zaribo 3D Printers. Note that the MK2S adaptor will be released soon, making this system currently only usable with Zaribo printers.

This system consists of three main components: The X Motor Adaptor: 1. Two adaptors are included, one that attaches directly to the motor and another that fits onto the Zaribo X motor holder version 2. You can find the Zaribo X motor holder version 2 here: https://github.com/Zaribo/Zaribo-MK2/tree/master/STL Ball Joints: Approximately 17 ball joints are required for the Zaribo, printed using 'Spiralise' or 'Vase' mode without top or bottom layers. PETG is recommended for printing to allow for some flexibility. The Rambo Box Adaptor - Zaribo: This adaptor is similar in design to the ball joints but has a straight end that fits over the existing Rambo connection, providing a snug fit. It must be printed using 'Spiralise' or 'Vase' mode and PETG is recommended for flexibility. When assembling the system, ensure that the ball joints have a loose fit when pushed together, without falling apart. Tips for threading wires through the ball joints include doing it in segments to make the process easier and then connecting the segments afterwards.
