hi all,

attached is a picture of the slide wire management plastic chain linked kinda thing. mine has a few links that are crunched.

anyone know where to get this stuff? i also sent an email to newell hoping they still have some and to ask if you can replace just a few links without running the wires through it.

newell sent me the ones they use now which was wayyyy too big. so i contacted the company that made it and ordered it directly from them in the size i needed which was inbetween the one that was on there and the one newell sent me.

had to cut the old one off one link at a time and it took a while. the new one had a slightly different length so had to play around with how many links to take out. finally ended up only taking one out. i bought the custom mounting end brackets that made it easy to mount. it took quite a while to get the new wires in. the new IGUS chain had one side that allows you to push the wires in. pretty slick but tight.

then adjusting the mounting so it hangs properly and fits in the cutout above the slide.

only thing now is the rope light shows at one end and i have to play with it to get it so it doesnt show.

the brand of the chain is called IGUS.
