Fully customizable cable chain. Optimized for 3D printing.
Model written in Python using library "yaost" (Yet Another OpenSCAD Translator).
Uploaded models is just example, to customize and make your own .scad/.stl, please see cable_chain.py
To make chain easy to service, i've made "top" and "bottom" links. You can alternate them, so there will be no need to pass the wire through each link in the chain. Also managing wires with bulky connectors becomes a lot easier.
How to make your model:
1. edit parameters at cable_chain.py
2. run:
pip install yaost
3. run
python3 cable_chain.py build
4. scad/stl models will appear in scad/stl directories in same directory as cable_chain.py
