Awesome!! Thanks so much for posting! I just happened to be thinking about designing a DIY cable carrier myself, then I stumbled upon this on youtube. You've saved me a lot of time. Thanks again!
Thanks for posting the dxf! Now I know what I'm going to use that piece of 1/8" pvc for, that I had laying around! Thanks!
Nice video. Really good video. Thanks for sharing our great experience.

WOW - - - You must have one hell of a big machine. Your DXF in AutoCad measure 101 5/8".
Also I have doubled the size of the cable carrier ends. Everything is working great carrying 1 large extension cable, 4 stepper cables, and a small switch cable. It think my cable carrier ended up being about 12 feet in length for my 10 foot long table. I feel like I am right near the limit for what 1/8" mdf will handle.

Make sure you import the dxf in mm. My drawing was in mm and exported in mm. The width of the slots should be 1/8" or 3.175mm.
Here are the .dxf files converted from metric to inches for the "Big" Cable Carrier....
I hope this helps some one.
Muchas gracias

COOL.....idea thank you for shared
Thanks for sharing the DXF of your clever design.
THANKS
This is perfect. I have a design that came with my cnc build (kronos) but it cannot handle the length of my table and it sags under the weight of the cables and then binds. Its great for smaller tables but not the 8' one I built. This looks like it would be far better. What is the maximum length you have run with this? I use sketchup more than any auto cad and I'd love the skp file if you would be willing to post it too. Maybe I could resize the model to fit my machine better. Thanks in advance.

I have the .skp files, but as you see above 'Manage Attachments' will not let me send them. Go Figure. jilt, If you can send me a PM with your e-mail I will send them to you.
