Description
This is an alternative strain relief bracket to replace the one that comes with Carl's Alu Carriage, a replacement extruder carriage for Makerbot-type printers.
The existing bracket seemed a little too small to grip the entire cable bundle going to the extruder, so I made this one.
Just print it out, and use it instead of the bracket that ships with the Alu Carriage. There are two versions, one has a narrower opening to better grip the cable bundle.
You can customize everything using the included OpenSCAD file.
UPDATE: I've added a v2 that has a groove around it designed to take a zip tie. This one is taller, so you may need to use a longer screw to anchor it.
