Cable Chain Ends for Felix 3D Printer

<h2>If you like what you see here, consider leaving a tip.<br></h2> End pieces for a Felix Printer upper cable chain. The ends were matched with a 10 x 15 mm R18 drag chain that was purchased on amazon for $14 Canadian. This was inspired by a project that a friend suggested I check out which can be found <a href="https://apollo.open-resource.org/mission:resources:picoprint">here</a>. I hope to have a cable chain design completed for the print bed wires sometime soon. Using this chain will require routing all wires from the print head toward the rear of the printer. I discovered that the parts of the Felix print head facilitated this quite nicely. The frame-side cable chain end does not require any support material but I used a brim for good bed adhesion. It snaps in to the extruded frame of the felix printer. The print head end requires internal support material, but no brim. It attaches to the lower frame of the print head using the belt tensioner M4 bolt and another M4 bolt in the side of the print head lower frame that will require drilling a hole. See the pictures for details.
