    Cord Managment

    So I've got my CRP 48x96 machine up and running like a champ, but there is one thing irritating me. The cord management is the is the trouble I'm having. I can't seem to find a good place to keep the wires organized and tidy.

    What are you guys doing to keep your wires in order and look nice? I'd love some tips or even some photos so that I can get a good idea on what to do.

    Thanks!

    Is that photo of your setup? Looks good to me. I've seen the plastic channel used with top caps - but do not know the name of it.

    I just used the e-link kit from cncrouterparts and then used cable wrap and zip ties (with stickie mounts) in between. Keeps it pretty nice.

    That looks great Kosh! But You're having the same issues I am. I don't like the wires being on the floor. I also have the cable tracks that I purchased from CNCRP, but I want to get the wires a little more organized. I'm going to keep fiddling with it and get this sorted out.

    Thanks!

    That's only because I haven't put it all in a box yet.

    Once that's done they'll run to the quick connects and be zip tied up for tidiness

    I put my controller on a pull-out and made a cable-arm to manage the wires.
