The Vector 3 3D Printer has the facility to add an SD Card but the socket for it is internal and therefore impractical. By adding an extension cable it is possible to take the SD card outside the case. This could be done by cutting the case but a simpler solution is to route the extension through the existing slot that carries the wiring to the Y-axis. Using this clip it is then possible to secure the extension to keep everything tidy.
