Cable chains for Prusa i3 Based on Cable chain for Replicator Dual Xmotor by stephenmhall, published Jul 28, 2013, which is licensed under the Creative Commons - Attribution license. I'm modifying this cable chain so it fits on multiple locations on my Prusa i3. I remade the chain unit because I couldn't repair the part to work in OpenSCAD. I recreated it in OpenSCAD, and sources are attached. I suggest you use the original chain unit instead of mine (the file cable_chainunit.stl, included). Z-axis: Right now, there's only the z-axis mount (z_fixed_mount.stl or z_fixed_mount.scad) that attaches to the back of the left z-axis motor (it reuses the screws used to mount your Z-axis motor to the wooden/alu plate). Make sure to print it with sufficient cooling, especially when building the overhang for the second M3 hole. I'm currently designing the Z-axis motor mount because having a cable chain with only one half attached is pretty useless. I'm also printing more chain_units. I'll upload a non-potato photo when it's done. Y-axis: To do X-axis: To do Development can be found on my GitLab profile, feel free to fork and make merge requests. Builds are available for download on Thingiverse. I'll regularly update this README file there.
