MakerBot Cable Bridge

thingiverse

This solution might be unnecessary for a non-existing issue. After fitting a Heated Build Platform on my MakerBot, I routed the cables from the extruder over the robot's top, down its back towards the HBP. I disliked how the cables rested on the z-belt. Instead of using the machine's interior for cable passage, I designed a device to hold and safeguard the belt. I had an almost irresistible inclination towards symmetry that led me to model the bottom endcap separately. The bottom notch printed flawlessly. To assemble, print one bridge and two endcaps. Attach endcaps at the back of your MakerBot where cables are located using acetone, and if needed, sand out the channel for a proper fit.
