Looking for links to projects and/or cad files. Cannot find anything in forums but I know I have seen posts before, I don't know the correct search terms I think.

Also these (D-Box and Lily), with twin wires.
D-box : Dyneema wire (50 kg ?)
Lily : Nylon wire 16 kg





Even with these wires near the balls, due to the wire tension there is a tendancy to deform the effector and if you have a heated bed, the Effector material shall be adapted to hot temperature (ABS or polycarbonate).
My PETG effector did not survived a heat bed at 120°C and chamber at 60°C. It shall be reprinted in ABS or Polycarbonate

Good wire tension improve precision and create a friction which may eliminate banding (it did for both machines).
