Desk-edge cable clip

Stops your charging cable from slipping off the back of the desk. It clamps onto the edge, and a small open hook underneath holds the cable so it stays put. Change the desk thickness and cable size to match yours.

Three walls give the jaw a good spring.

Assembly

  1. Measure how thick your desk is and set the Desk thickness slider to match.
  2. Push the clip onto the desk edge until the back of the C touches the edge.
  3. Press the cable into the loop from behind/under the desk until it clicks past the lips.

Good to know

  • The preview shows the clip overlapping the desk slightly. That's on purpose: it's the 1 mm squeeze the lower jaw springs open by when you push it on, and it's what holds the clip in place. If it's too tight or too loose, change the Grip pinch slider.
  • How well the cable snaps in depends on how soft its outer jacket is. Print one first and try it, and if it needs it, nudge the Cable diameter slider.
