Extruder cable clamp by Belakor Oct 25, 2009

Description

Since I've got an E-Stop button in the hole that the extruder cable would normally go through I needed some way to secure the cable, since it looked like it could do some damage to the extruder board if it kept bending over like it was.

This is designed to attach to the side of the Makerbot using the Z+ endstop screws, it does fit with the standard screws but using slightly longer ones might be a good idea.

The potential problem with that is the holes coming out lopsided.

Would it make more sense to rotate it so that it prints on the side ? Perhaps that'd get rid of the wait cycles being needed. Just a thought

this and the Z-Crank cant be missed

Instructions

Skeinforge will complain about there being holes in the mesh as it's being processed but it doesn't seem to cause any problems with the print, not sure why it's doing it.
Also it might be a good idea to print with cooling and/or a fan running as the "bridge" that secures the cable can get a little gooey.
