Charging Cable Guides for MacBook (Pro) - 15" and 12" (2016)

prusaprinters

I was disappointed to find that the 2016 MacBook Pro's charging cable no longer had the two little clasps that would hold the cable when not in use. So, I made my own alternative. This build has two main functions: (1) Bundle the small USB-C wire when not in use. (2) Keep the main charging unit supported and off the ground (in particular, carpet) when charging your laptop to permit better heat transfer. I have iterated it a few times to get it to snap onto the charger without fracturing when made of PLA. I found that rotating it onto the charger is the best way to attach it. I hope you enjoy, and don't forget to post photos of your makes.
