This clamp securely fastens onto the Nimble drive cable. Tighten it just enough for it to hold firmly in place. Be mindful of the twisting force it can exert if the bowden tube does not move or rotate smoothly. Print this design as is, with support material, since PetG is being used. I simplified the original design by cutting out the unnecessary section and adding the rest. You will need a M3x20-25 screw and nut to securely fasten it in place. This clamp can potentially be adapted for use on any printer that features the Zesty Nimble drive (excluding the Sidewinder model). Future developments may involve integrating a connection point to the base, which could prevent the drive cable from rotating. I will assess whether this becomes an issue in future iterations. Version 1 had some drawbacks, including difficulty with disconnection and reconnection. Here is Version 2, designed for easier snap-on/snap-off functionality with careful handling.
