From the moment I seen the spine cable I HAD to print it. it looks cool AF, its functional and the links themselves are easy to print.

However I had serious issues with printing the extruder plate section. I couldn't get the supports to accurately hug the connector part and I tired tree and standard (part of the connecter was basically missing), so I decided to split them into 2 parts.

  1. the bolt connector (screw_link_section.stl) can be printed with supports (you can block some if you want).
    • The flat bottom to the screw means the supports easily print and remove ones done.
    • Remember this part needs to be 100% infill as mentioned in the Original.
  2. The extruder plate (plate_section_reword.stl) can now be printed with a lesser than 100% infill if you want and I cut a hole in the middle to match the extruder plate aesthetics.
    • I also move the “drop” section of the plate out by 2mm as I noticed mine was catching ever so slightly.
    • The extruder place section (the bit with the large hole in) has also extended width wise by 2mm to give the corner holes some strength
    • the wholes for screws I cut as I wasn't having luck with the nubs on the part they went printing properly or when they did print the broke off easy when trying to fit them. You just need 4  M3 nuts and bolts to finish it. if you don't have any you can print them

      NOTE: I haven't printed them at all but they seem to be ok. print at your own risk.
       
  3. I didn't want to re-invent the wheel as it were so I just found a Nut on Printables for the screw link section: https://www.printables.com/model/354965-m5-nut-knob/files
    That worked fine for mean and if you want you can your nut onto the screw and then pull that off so its not on the print all the time.
