Creator 5/5 Pro Toolhead Cable Strain Relief Guide

The main toolhead cable on my Creator 5 would often tangle and yank on the other toolhead cables while printing, putting unnecessary strain on them.

I designed this very simple guide/deflector which gently adjusts the position of the toolhead cable so it no longer interferes with the other toolheads.

I printed mine in PLA, but PETG is highly recommended for the PRO version due to the higher temperatures. For the regular Creator 5, PLA is more than enough since there is very little pressure on the part.

It is a quick print with minimal supports. I recommend using the included manual support settings, as I only added supports where necessary to reduce waste and print time.

There is also a small clip that installs at the end to prevent the cable from falling out of the guide. One of the inner edges is rounded and is meant to face upward to reduce the risk of the cable rubbing against a sharp edge.

Installation is pretty much self-explanatory, but check the video below for visual instructions if needed.
