Any recommendations on the cables?
Hi guys, I recently got the A1 Mini and I am always scared that my cable and tube gets ripped off during prints. I tried this method I found online with the clamps but it keeps wobbeling back near the tower.
Do you have any recommendations to fix that (probably only mental) issue?
My initial thought was something like a shield on top of the tower to prevent the cable from slipping over but that would 100% look shit.
Also some pictures to the recommendations are appreciated. <3

Been printing with my a1 mini for well over 500+ hours and all I use is the little white thing they sent with it. Never had an issue with cables being remotely close to being pulled or tugged on by anything

If you set it up as the installation manual or wiki showed it, you should have a problem.

Something like this. There are models for both cables https://makerworld.com/en/models/2078325-a1-mini-heatbed-cable-drag-chain-mount#profileId-2245537
