The file 'Cable Chain – One Piece, Removable, Fast To Print, No Supports 3D Printer Model' is (stl,skp) file type, size is 662.8KB.
Here's a small cable chain that can be printed without supports in one piece for each chain link. Cables can be inserted to and removed from the mounted cable chain easily.
I mounted it to the original screws on my CTC DIY printer. If you need other mounts, the sketchup file is included so you can design your own.
Radius: about 35 mm (70 mm diameter)
Room for cables: about 7x5 mm
Spiritdude pointed out that this cable chain intereferes with the Y stopper switch. That is right, thank you!
I needed to move that switch by turning the back side around. Since the Y motor is turned around by this as well, you'll need to change 2 of it's wires so the direction is reversed. There is one picture that shows how it is arranged now.
Spiritdude himself managed to avoid moving the switch! See his comment and make. Thanks!
