Tronxy X5S top cable chain system

Having reviewed various designs for cable management on the Tronxy X5S carriage, I attempted to print several options but none ultimately worked for me. The original OEM design tends to pull the carriage off-center and the drag chains are not designed to handle sideways loads well, which eventually causes them to sag and risk colliding with gantry parts and belts. This design uses 4 x 608 ball bearings for swivel mounts and is intentionally precision-engineered to ensure a snug fit. After testing other options on Thingiverse, I found they were often sloppy and compromised the overall performance of the carriage. I safely removed eight links from the original chain without compromising access to all areas of the bed with the carriage. Apologies for poor photo quality; I'm still figuring out how to reorient them within the app, so a PC will be needed to fix this issue.
