Wire Management for V-Slot Printers (MakerFarm i3v)

Here are the parts I use to manage and hide the wires on my MakerFarm i3v printers.

• The cable clips snap into the grooves of the V-Slot extrusions to hide wires inside.
• The end strain relief mounts to the end of an extrusion with a 5mm screw and T-nut to provide a place to tie off wires.
• The groove plate slides into the end of the extrusion to capture and hide smaller wires.

Instructions

I use these parts to route and hide the X motor and X and Y endstop wires on my MakerFarm i3v printers. The X motor and endstop come into the X axis assembly from the right with a single cable bundle. The motor wires run the length of the extrusion, hidden under cable clips.

I also use the cable clips to route the wires under the extrusion to the Y endstop switch.

The snap-in clips fit pretty well when printed in ABS with a .4mm Hexagon, .2mm layers.
