Print Thing TagSummary
Yet another cable protector, this time for Lenovo's rectangular slim plugs used on newer ThinkPads. The middle section of this protector is intentionally left longer than neccesary so cables that have already been repaired can fit. It should fit models with and without ferrite core filters. The design contains a single shell, you'll need two for one cable.
Note: On the second photo the bottom piece has been cut short due to warping. See top or rendering for full length.

Post-Printing
If the cable was already broken I would suggest to fill the gap with silicone or hot glue. Keep in mind you material might get soft when using the latter
The shells stayed in place pretty well for me, for a permanent mount you might want to add a bit of glue on the pins
