Pulley - Heated Bed Cable Saver for Snapmaker 2.0

thingiverse

This is a simple pulley used to save the heated bed cable of a Snapmaker 2.0. The original design of the printer makes it easy for the cable to get stuck under the bed while it moves around, connecting the cable to a small weight through this pulley allows you to solve the issue easily with a very small printed piece which will lift the cable out of the way of the bed. To assemble the pulley you can use 2 spare original bolts from snapmaker 1x M4x10 1x M4x28 carefully and slowly screw them in and out bit by bit until they fit. Set the bed to the maximum distance from the back of the enclosure and pick the proper weight and lenght of the wire, carefully checking that Y axis can move smoothly. Since i couldn't find some lead, i created a small cylinder to fill up with 1€cent coins. 50grams seem to be working for me. It's a bit tricky to print, i did it upsidedown, mind the little slot to insert coins, which needs support too. The small hook allows for easy removing of the cable, without any knots, and can slip inside the coins slot, to leave it hanging in the back while when not in use. No responsabilities taken, use at you own risk (but for me it works like a charm)
