The charging cable always breaks at the same position, just right under the plug. You don't need to replace it, fix it with this easy print! This works for Apple USBC and lightning, as well as for samsung charging cables!
No glue or tape is needed.

How to repair the cable:
1) Carefully cut off the straggly ends of the broken cable, this will help to fit the Cable repair better.
2) Download the .3mf / .gcode file and print it. Suggested settings are listed above.
3) Make sure the guide rails are printed well. This will help to assemble it more easily.
4) Put the two parts together.
5) Enjoy your repaired cable!
Tipp: If there is too much friction add some lubricant or Vaseline to the guide rails. This will help. Make sure the parts are printed well, maybe work on the edges if needed.
