MPCNC cable chain supports (tape trick)

Description

This is a set of supports for nylon cable chain, the "tape measure trick" (https://www.v1engineering.com/forum/topic/better-than-a-cable-chain/) as I didn't found any good way to hold it in place, I made these supports :) You will need: 2x - xy chain support (pulleys) 4x - bearing spacer (to mount the piece above) 2x - xy chain support (rail) - these are *optional*, more details latter 1x - z chain support (motor) 1x - z chain support (top) 1x - z chain support (gantry) I'll not leave instructions, you can see the photos to understand how to mount it but it's very intuitive. You will only need a bunch of zip ties and a bit of glue. The optional support, can be used to shorter the chain length of the x and y axis, also making the gap clear. Mine was glued, but you can drill it, the idea is to put a hole on the rail, and put the cables by there, to reach the side where the axys cables meet. I haven't done it yet but I'll soon do, then i put some photos too.
