Do you have plans to make some sort of cable strain relief for the hot end wiring? Right now I tied it to the PTFE tubing, but think there could be a better solution.

Yeah I've been playing around with some ideas but for now that is what I would recommend. Unfortunately I have so much to do that I have to pick my battles carefully, and that has taken a lower stance on the priority list since it can be accomplished with a zip tie like you said! |

Perhaps you could also attach the wiring to the back of the printer with a ziptie mount, give it a little extra slack than it needed to make the gap, and then tie it very securely there so none of the bends would get too tight. That's what I intend to do at least.

That's what I intend to do at least. Yep that's exactly why I included those cable anchors! Two are meant to go on the back for exactly that, two more are meant to go underneath (one up front to hold the extra lcd cabling and one in the back for organizing that wiring a bit). Then there's one extra anchor for you to decide what to do with! |
