Cable clip and desk cable organizer generator
Cable clips only work when the snap opening is sized to the cable. Enter your cable diameter and how many you want to route; the generator builds C-clips with an opening at 80% of the cable diameter so they click in and stay, on a base you can screw down or stick with foam tape.

How to make it
- Measure the cable diameter with calipers.
- Pick the number of cables and mounting type.
- Print in PETG so the clips flex without cracking.
Print tips
- PETG or TPU for the clip spring; PLA may crack after repeated use.
- Print upright as modeled; no supports needed.
FAQ
Can I mix cable sizes?
Generate one organizer per size, or describe mixed sizes to the Loftsmith AI and it will build a custom one.
What screws do I need?
Two M4 (or #8) countersunk wood screws. Tape mounting leaves a flat base for 3M VHB.
