About this model

If you print this thing and find it useful, please consider hitting that "Tip Designer" button and help support more designs. I wanted a Y-Axis Cable Chain, but found that the majority of them were on the left side (interfering with the home position) and they would either hit or rub against the frame. So I decided to re-design one for my needs. I narrowed all of the pieces and added grooves to the connections so that they click together easier. I also found that the suggested 14 chain links made it too long and would hit the front frame, so I am only using 12.
