After looking at the options for cable management for the X-Carriage/Hotend, I decided that I'd go with a drag chain running on it's side across the top. I've included the STL files for both the modified X-carriage and the mount that I used to secure the other end of the cable chain onto the frame.
What you'll need:
2x M3 square nuts (https://www.amazon.com/100pcs-Stainless-Steel-Square-Nuts/dp/B018JPZNS6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1517527748&sr=8-3&keywords=square+m3+nut)
2x M3 hex nuts (I'm terrible at consistency apparently...)
4x M3x10mm screws
1 meter long 20x10mm drag chain (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free-Shipping-10-x-20mm-10-20mm-L1000mm-Cable-Drag-Chain-Wire-Carrier-with-end-connectors/32733132867.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.LXbZDd)
