Bowden Cable Servo Control for Robotics

This is an enclosure for standard size servos to control cables in animatronics / robotics projects.

I'm using a 4mm PTFE tube, the ones commonly used in bowden setups on 3d printers too, and a brake cable for bicycles, fastened to the servo wheel with a part bought in an RC shop.

For the lid to hold the tube tight use an M3 machine screw, a washer and an M3 nut.

For me printing it "the right way up" with supports seem to work best.

I might design a wheel for the servo that can pull the wire around more.

This is my very first own design in Fusion 360 so any feedback is welcome :)
