Simple Metal Cable Chain Mounts

Simple Metal Cable Chain Mounts

Description

This Is A Remix Of The Extruder Cable Chain Mount (Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:514728), And The Bottom Link Of The Open Cable Chain. (Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:40918) Both Of The Mounts Presented Here Have Been Modified To Make Them Fit On The Simple Metal'S Base And Extruder. I Had To Tweak My Y Axis Stop, Resulting In The Loss Of A Couple Mm From The Print Bed'S Volume, Otherwise Homing The Y Axis Will Result In The Printer Grinding As It Tries To Compact The Chain Down. Ymmv. Edit: I'Ve Uploaded A Newer Version Of The Extruder Mount To Accommodate The Cable Exit If You'Ve Managed To Do What I Did And Strip Out The Screw That The Bearing Screws Into, Forcing You To Rotate The Extruder Motor To Get A 'Fresh' Hole. :) I Also Added The Mounts For The Y Axis Harness; The Motor Side I Went Lo-Tech/Low-Rent On; You'Ll Need Either A Pair Of Zip Ties Or A Really Long Skinny Tie That Will Wrap Around The Motor. The Lower Mount Has A Plate That Lines Up With The A Screw Hole In The Base; You'Ll Need A Screw That Fits It To Secure It. Edit, 2/28/2015: Removed The 'Work In Progress' Flag; I'Ve Been Running With The Current Versions Now For A Couple Months, And It'S Been Solid.
