X axis brush guard

* Eventually I just redid the whole thing into the cover with a channel labelled “final version”. But the work-up was fun, so I left it in here, and a picture of the freaky mice. I wanted the brush-guard sweetness I saw on some other printers, but also a cable chain, so made a remix of Thing:3465579 But once I added the chain, the bristles got jammed up, and occasionally would get into a bigger print, so I modded some more to have some mouse-ears that knock the bristles backward. Then they got stuck on the chain, so I made one of those freak mice like this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacanti_mouse . The chain rail from thing:4181859 didn’t work for the deeper chain from Thing 4235563 so I whipped one up. I used the non-worky-for-me one that was already printed (FECK!) to cover the cables running up the side of the printer. I made the squirrelly corner piece to hide the final bit of cable because I am a seriously neurotic mofo. I also used some guitar cable shielding for the hotend wire since everything is jammed the frick in there. I don’t actually play guitar, I’m not that cool, but I like shielded wires.

Cover printed in ABS to bring the heat; will probably upgrade materials in the future.
