Another Cable Guide.
Mounts on the rear of the X Gantry.
This one is in 3 parts, the main mounting bracket requires 2 M5 T nuts and a couple og M5 Bolts approx 8mm long.
The Cable clamp has been designed to allow rotation when needed.
The 2 parts are fixed together with a 3d printed pin, designed to be a tight fit in the mounting arm and loose through the clamp/cable guide.
This pin may need a little sanding to get a good fit depending on the accuracy of your printer, flow calibration and slicer settings.
Don't be tempted to print the pin with a small layer height that will make it weaker, i'd use at least a 0.20 layer height and 100% infill.
The pin is designed to be 0.20mm too long so when fully home there should be a small gap.
