J Tech Photonics Laser heat sink cable holder to take away tension

thingiverse

This is a custom cable holder designed specifically for a laser purchased from J Tech Photonics (http://jtechphotonics.com). The holder keeps tension away from soldering points within the enclosure, even when the laser is in motion. Without this holder, there's a risk that the cable will detach from the laser-led at some point, as I unfortunately discovered. The cable grabber has a snug fit, but you may need to use pliers to push the cable into place. If your bolt is longer than mine, consider using washers to fill the gap. Alternatively, if your bolt is shorter, sanding down the holder will adapt it to fit perfectly. For added security, there's a small hole intended for a zip-tie to keep the cable firmly in place. One side features an extended edge designed to slot into the enclosure rail, preventing the holder from spinning loose. I'd love to see your builds and creations!
