I really liked the cable chain design by Elpo, but unfortunately it didn't include end pieces for the chain links to mount to. Elpo's original chain links were 10mm wide on the inner dimension, but I decided to up the size to 12mm as I wanted something a little bit bigger for my printer.
Note: When connecting the male end piece to the first link, you will need to cut or break off the hinged piece along with the two lower posts in order for it to snap in. This only needs to be done on the first link attached to the male end piece.
*Use FT-5 specific Y axis chain ends for a better fit. Originals are fine for the X axis, but will not have correct alignment for the Y axis.
