Description

Update 6/25/24: Updated geometry to be a more secure fit and  also fit A1 Mini (big thanks to Aleks89 for feedback and testing on the Mini). 

 

After the 3rd time my cable snagged on the upper frame, I decided to make a quick cable guide. I'm not sure why this wasn't included in the printer design as it seems like it would be a common issue even with the recommended AMS locations.

 

There are lots of ways you could achieve this, mine rides on the z axis and holds the end of the cable far enough in it doesn't snag on the corner of the frame.

 

It should snap into place with a little effort.

I printed the 0.2 PLA version & it fit perfectly fine! Great design & works well with the cable guide on the other side (from another user)

It's a very tight fit to get on, but then somehow is a bit loose once installed. It rocks back and forth along the printers Y axis. I still really like it though and continue to use it.

Yeah its the same for me. I probably could maybe make it a bit more snug on the lower part, but it seemed to work fine and is a bit of a gamble of how uniform their molds are.

Just what I needed to get this cable out of the way. This was a quick, easy functional print.
