3mm filament for stiffening wire harness
Does anyone have a good source for a small amount of the 3mm filament used to stiffen the wire harness running from the print head to the controller? I am rebuilding a printer and the prior owner had pulled it out and had taped the wire harness to the top of the frame.

Go to eBay or a eshop and buy a sample of nylon 3mm filament.

3mm nylon strimmer cord works!
I have also stuffed an longM3 Screw up 4mm PTFE Tube, cut the head off the screw and put the stub of the screw into the 3mm hole for the support filament,the PTFE makes a good support filament
