Black plastic jointed wire carrier

Post by SIBUD »

On many pics I see a black plastic wire track containing the wires to the motors. Anyone know a source and what they are really called?

Thanks

Sibud,
google wire track and many varieties come up, some with different names. Here is a site that sells it by the foot:

It is sometimes called cable drag chain - ebay is full of it.
Hope this info helps you.

Thanks everyone.

I've never been on a forum with so many helpful members.

This forum alone is worth the price of the software.
