Scalable SD Card Extension Ribbon Cable Covers for 40mm V-Slot Extrusions

thingiverse

This is one of my initial designs, and it's a straightforward snap-in cover for SD Card Extender cables to run down the side of an aluminum V-Slot Extrusion. I use it with Teaching Tech's All-in-One Rear Mount Electronics case because the SKR1.3's SD slot puts it in the rear. I needed a sophisticated way to run the cable for the SD card extension cord I use, and this design fits perfectly. It has enough space to accommodate numerous cables, making it versatile enough to hide cables all over your printer.

It's got plenty of space to run multiple cables through and you could potentially use these all over your printer to keep cables organized. The provided file is 40mm tall, but you can easily adapt it to any size by scaling it on the Z axis vertically in your slicer to whatever height you need. I have included two files - one designed for easy insertion into the slots and another with cutouts that make snapping it in and pulling it out a breeze without having to remove end caps or anything. This design should fit perfectly, but you may have to sand off the little nubs that grab the inside of the V-slots if it's too difficult to snap in or out. If you'd like to show off your build, post a picture so I can see what you've created with this cover.
