Prompt that made this

Cable drag chain for a 3D printer or CNC. Five identical separate links, not grouped, each 20 mm long, 15 mm wide inside and 10 mm high inside, with snap-fit pivots so they join into a chain that bends one way only, and an opening top bar to drop cables in. Shown linked in a gentle curve.

Why this one

Cable guide chain for a 3D printer or CNC axis

Each link is a rectangular tunnel for the cables. Round-headed pins on the outer walls snap into ear holes on the next link. The pivot is near the floor, so the chain bends with the top outside and stops when bent the other way. The roof is open except for a bar at one end, so cables drop in from the top.
