Description

The Ender 5 Plus suffers from the same lack of wirestrain management as the Ender 5, and to the same detriment. This fixes that. It sandwiches the pillow block and the axis assembly between its braces (without intruding on the motion or bed tramming systems), then launches an arm (normal and raised +25mm included) out to support the wirestrain.

I have a prototype installed, and it works well enough I'm not going to bother reprinting the final version I've uploaded here (in the installed pic, if you look closely you'll notice a shim. The final version here is 0.75mm shorter on the bottom of the brace top to create more of a "grip" effect on the assembly, and the top of the brace top is only 2mm thick, as it does not need to bear any strength).

You will need:
6x M3x8mm bolts
6x M3 nuts
1x thin zip-tie (no more than 2mm thick on the part that goes through)

See pics for assembly.
