I noticed my Sprite Extruder Pro was putting a lot of sideways force and twist on the cable with the small stock support bracket. I wanted to maintain a horizontal positioning for the cable rather than introduce the 90* twist that others have. This version provides additional support about 2" up the cable where the mesh cable wrap provides additional strength.

This configuration enables me to run the cable up over the upper X bracket. The cable does lay on the bed at certain heights, which is a problem I haven't chosen a final solution for. It doesn't interfere with my prints, surprisingly, so far. I will add to this model as I make more adjustments in the future.

Printed in TPU95A, on its side so that the print lines are oriented along the vertical extent of the support. With a tree support below most of it's left side, its fairly easy to clean up. I tried PETG and the retention wings were far too fragile to hold - I think it would need some rework for a hard/brittle material.
