CR-10 Print head cable tidy

thingiverse

I had an intermittent problem with nozzle temp readings. I think this is because the cables on the print head get moved as once running all returns to normal. Being fixed to the bowden tube twists the cable as it moves from side to side. I felt both bowden tube and cable would be happier if the were free to move independently. So I made this. Fits behind the carrier as photos, no need for dismantling. I fitted this with double sided tape but you could also use a 2mm? bolt and washer in the existing threaded fan shroud hole. If you do just hold the fan with a nut instead of the hex bolt. The Heath Robinson elastic band and cable tie at the top just keep the cable more or less stress free. Makes sure it is more or less vertical. Cable tie slides on the rail a bit, rubber band means no solid fixing. I just wanted the cable to move freely all over rather than bend at a particular point. The Bowden tube can pivot freely, may allow it to be shortened a bit ? but ok as is.
