Migbot Prusa i3 Y Axis Drag-chain

thingiverse

My Migbot never came with drag chains, so I ended up tired of all the loose cables that kept falling around everywhere due to my crashes. Those cables would always get stuck causing me to crash into the Y-Axis frame over and over again. Not to mention, it took the solder joints on the endstop switch coming loose not once, but twice before something had to be done. I knew right then I needed to make a drag chain for my Y-Axis. That's when I discovered this link (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:11978) that I thought was perfect. Now let me explain the assembly of this device, first, there is the Y-axis frame mount which is fixed to the frame below the y-carriage and what really secures it in place is a nut screwed onto the threaded rod, and it also gets tightened by that part around the frame itself (refer to images). Now on the flip side there's an attachment intended for my Y-Axis carriange. As I'm writing this article the parts hasn't been finalized but you know what, I fixed it using a zip-tie by zipping one into place right against the endstop. Fifteen of them turned out to be just fine.
