This is a Heated Build Platform Wire Guide for the ToM. I was unhappy with the other wire guides as they didn't keep the wires away from X axis, Y axis and the heated surface through the range of X and Y as well as keeping helping keep the strain off the connector.I figured the solution was to pull the wires further out to the front.I use this in conjunction with this strain relief: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:12341 Because of the thumbscrews I'm using to level the HBP platform, I mount thing 12341 on the opposite side, so it should be mirror'd in replicatorG in the Y axis, and you need to file/cut a bit off the slope to clear the 2 pin HBP ABP motor connector.UPDATE: Dan has derived and updated this design to remove the need to disconnect the cables and provide vertical / horizontal mounting options. I'm now using Dan's: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:15327Print both halves and glue together with acetone. Mount on the HBP with a M3 Nut / Bolt. You'll need to drill a 3mm hole in the plywood to attach the wire guide via the rounded slot.Carefully disconnect the HBP connector (the circuit board traces can easily come off). Make a note of the order of the wires, and use a knife or small screwdriver to push the release tab on each wire on the connector to remove each wire from the connector. Thread the wires through the torus on the guide and click back in the connector.Resist the temptation to move the HBP by grabbing the cable guides.
