MK3S+ Z Motor Strain Relief

I just finished assembling my MK3S+. Fun to build and fun to use. I was unhappy there was no strain relief on the Z motor wire leads, inevitable for wires to fatigue and break. I printed a strain relief. Now I'm happy. Wish I could upload .STL, but not allowed here...

Hello,

I also just completed my build and had the same concern with the Z motor wiring.  Great idea!  Have you fiqured out yet how to share your design so I can print it?

Regards, Dan

ZIP it and upload, forum don't allow STL's
Even better, share on https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints

Just to be clear this is a strain relief for the X axis motor leads, made to prevent damage from Z axis motion.
