If you make this model and like it, please post your make and rate the model, that would make my day!

I'm currently building a Lack enclosure and realised that any time I want to pull the printer out of the enclosure, for maintenance or whatever, I will have to disconnect all the cables from the externally mounted PSU. Which would be very annoying!

So I cut the 2 power cables and added XT60 connectors, and cut the power panic cable and added a JST connector. With this upgrade it meant that the standard power cable pass-through models for the project wouldn't be large enough for the XT60 connectors. And I wanted to keep the hole as small as possible so I designed this. 

It's a snug fit but it does fit. If your prints run small or something maybe scale it up by 3.5%.

I used a 20mm spade drill bit on the table (if you had a 20mm standard bit that would be much better I imagine), and I masked both sides of the table with painters tape to prevent chipping.

This was my first time designing anything with a thread and I'm really happy with how it turned out. 

Model dimensions:

  • Inside Diameter: 16.5mm
  • Outside diameter: 19.6mm 
  • Tube length 50.3mm

I printed these on an MK3S+ using the following settings:

  • 0.15mm detail with a 0.6mm nozzle (of course 0.4mm nozzle will be fine)
  • 15% infill
  • 3 perimeters
  • Aligned seams
