Description
This is the long awaited 'Z' Axis Cable Chain for the Ender 3.
It is currently a work in progress since there is one hurdle to overcome - the wiring that is supplied with this 3D printer is too short to be used with a cable chain. I must find a way of making wiring extensions for the - hot end, extruder motor, y-axis stepper motor and the y axis stop switch.
Otherwise the links work fine. The orientation is spot on. And the attachment points on each end are perfectly aligned and work flawlessly.
The top end cable attachment point also incorporates the 'BDFG' rev1 Filament Guide. The entire assembly is fastened using the existing 'Z' axis threaded rod brass lead screw attachment screws.
New to this Cable Chain is the (2) piece link which allows the wiring to be installed after all the links have been assembled.
ENJOY!!!!
