Wanhao I3 Maker Select Cable Cover Y-Axis Chain

thingiverse

This is my first project with 3D modeling, and I invested a significant amount of time - around 8-10 hours - to figure it out. If you enjoy the model, please consider tipping me for a beer; your appreciation would be greatly valued. The Wanhao I3, Maker Select & Cocoon come equipped with Z-Axis chain and X-Axis chain but lack a Y-Axis chain, and the wire management in the back appears unsightly to me. After researching a solution, I found that there are options for wire management or Y-Axis chain solutions, but nothing that addresses both issues simultaneously. To fill this gap, I created this Remix to solve both problems. This design complements the SWD1 Front Z-AXIS Brace Kits available on Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1549403). Print Settings For All: Resolution: 0.2mm Infill: 20% With Supports Everywhere Specific Print Settings: Front Cover: Infil 20% No Supports Plate Mount: Infil 20% No Supports Back Cover: Infil 50% No Supports Chain Mount: Infil 20% No Supports Chain Clip (15 Needed): Infil 20% No Supports Chain Main (13 Needed): Infil 20% No Supports Front Cover Mount & Hole Cover: Infil 20% No Supports To facilitate assembly, I've included a picture showing how the parts fit together. Here's a step-by-step guide to assemble this Remix: 1. Remove the outermost screws from the rear plate of your printer and attach the "Back Cover" using m3 10mm screws. 2. Slide the "Front Cover" into the clips on the "Back Cover," ensuring the Y-Axis wires pass through the hole in the front cover. Secure the "Front Cover" to the "Back Cover" with three m3 10mm screws. 3. The "Hole Cover" fits into the key left open for the Y-Axis wires. 4. Screw the "Front Cover Mount" through the "Hole Cover" and into the "Front Cover" using two m12 screws. 5. Attach the "Chain 2 Mount" to the "Front Cover Mount." 6. Clip all the "Chain Mains together." 7. Secure the "Chain Main" to the "Front Cover Mount." 8. Snap the "Plate Mount" into the lower Y-Axis plate. 9. Attach the "Chain Main" to the "Plate Mount." 10. Once you have the wiring inside the Chain clip, secure it in place with a "Chain Clip."
