Having issues installing the base chain clips (broke one set already) into the aluminium extrusion... anyone have any tips? It seems like they don't flex enough for the clips to push into the extrusion and when you use any force they snap. I see one comment saying to use hot water to make them more flexible (I presume) anyone had any luck with this?

Love it! Great addition to my neptune :)
Printed with PETG, 3 walls and 20% infill.

I downloaded all the files from your previous post and now this is in the remix! Which files do I need for the Neptune 4 pro?
Awesome works well
This an awesome cable chain. It does what is supposed to do and looks good!
The cable chain works really well. This bunch of cables that used to stick out to the side of my Neptune 4 Pro is now nicely contained much closer to the printer.
looks great, is a little fiddly to fit, but after fitting the first chain you get faster ;)
Not too hard to assemble, and somehow—I don’t even know how—not a single part broke during installation! :D
However, I did run into two issues
1.Base chain clip problem: The top clip has a small cutout to slide into the rails, but the bottom clip doesn’t. Because of this, I couldn’t push the bottom clip through and had to trim it quite a bit to make it fit
2.Unnecessary drag on the X-axis stepper motor cable connector: This is an easy fix—I’d recommend using zip ties to secure it.
Aside from those issues, I love this model! It looks fantastic and functions perfectly!
