I had seen a couple of similar cable organizers but the dimensions where slightly off so the slicer had to add a lot of Gap Fills. This wastes time. The joints and snap fused together as well. With this model you can set your own parameters.
Also, the tolerance was set too tight for printers like Ender 3.
I just couldn't get them properly printed no mater what I tried.
So, I designed my own Cable Organizer.
Update 25/02/2021
I decided to make this design freely available. Enjoy!
Design Goals:
- Customizable Length, width, ...
- Printable in PLA and PETG (and maybe some others)
- No Gap Fill
- No Support
- Reasonable infill
- Minimal material and time
Software Used
- Fusion 360
- PrusaSlicer 2.3.0+
My Printer
Creality Ender 3
Files
- Fully parametric Fusion 360 Model. You can change the user parameters to customize the design. (see screenshot of parameters)
- STEP File
- STL File
Important
Let the parts cool completely before taking them off the bed. When they are still warm, they could still deform and the snapping action could fail.

Notes:
- 0.24mm layer height 20% gyroid infill for maximum strength if you use PrusaSlicer 3 perimeters 4 top layers 3 bottom layers **ALL extrusion widths at 0.45mm!!! This is very important because the model is designed with that in mind.**
Post-Printing
Let the print cool down to room temperature before popping off the build plate.
The reason is that the spring section is delicate. If the print is still warm, you could bend it and the lever would not return to the correct position anymore.
