Cable Dock + Clips | H3C Desk Collection

Stop chasing charging cables that slip off the desk. Press each cable down through a neck into its round channel: the plug stays at the front, ready to grab, and the cable runs out the back. A second plate has 10 small adhesive clips for routing cables under or along the desk.

Why it is different

• 5 channels for cables of 4, 5, 6, 5 and 4 mm. Each one has a narrower neck (78% of the cable diameter) with a chamfered entry, so the cable clicks in and stays.

• The plug can't pull through: the dock holds the cable end right at the front edge.

• 10 clips on plate 2 (two each for 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8 mm cables) with a 45 degree teardrop bore, so they print flat with no supports. Stick them on with double-sided tape.

• Three textures, one family: DUNE (sand ripples), HIVE (hexagons that shrink toward the rim) and NINE (architectural flutes). The same look as the H3C Purge Bin.

• NINE TOOLS badge: an engraved emblem with nine dots for the nine PrintTools. Print it in one colour, or as a flush 2-colour inlay on the H3C.

• Seamless wrap: every texture is tuned so the pattern closes perfectly around the back, with no seam line.

• Support-free and plate-ready: overhangs are 45 degrees or less (plus a few short bridges), and every profile slices with no warnings.

What's included

• 3MF profiles for DUNE, HIVE and NINE: H3C 2 colours (inlay) and 1 colour all printers

• STL per texture (body + inlay), and the clips STL

How to use

1. Plate 1: dock, upright. Plate 2: clips. No supports.

Print settings

• Material: PLA (Bambu PLA Basic). 0.4 mm nozzle, 0.20 mm layers, 3 walls, 15% infill, Textured PEI plate.

• No supports. Seam on the back.

• 2 colours: the inlay is a separate part already assigned to filament 2. The time includes the prime tower.

• The all-printers profile is built on the Bambu Lab A1 mini (180 mm), so it opens on any Bambu printer and fits small beds.

Files

STLs in print orientation (Z up): <SKIN>_body.stl works alone as a 1-colour print with an engraved badge; <SKIN>_inlay.stl is the optional 2nd colour that fills the engraving. For 2 colours, load both together and answer Yes to 'load as a single object with multiple parts', then set the inlay to filament 2. Cable_Clips_x10.stl is the clip plate.
