Cable Guide for Makerfarm 12" i3v

thingiverse

I designed this cable guide to prevent the cable bundle from getting tangled between the X-carriage and home switch while homing, keeping the entire cable system out of the way in general. To secure it, I attach the guide to the printer's top using a few cable ties, then use one or two more ties to hold the cable assembly in place. As soon as possible, I will upload photos showing the completed installation. Originally, I created this design to be printed on its side but decided to print it with an upward arch and support material under the bridge-like shape instead. Fortunately, it turned out well, though printing on its side might yield even better results. Instructions I initially designed this for a sideways print but ended up using an arched design with support underneath the curved section. The approach worked fine, but maybe printing on its side would produce an even better outcome. If you want to print it flat, tilting it 12.15° will cause both ends to lie against the bed.
