Dewalt V-Groove Z-Axis

I finally have an update! I got finally got a free (ish) weekend to work on my maslow and I have finally gotten it to move!


Here is a picture of my temp sled.


And here is the bracket that I made. I might have slightly overbuilt it but that has been the whole process it seems for me, oops.

But as I have continued to build I was using the bolt together frame as my guide in a way but I really hate how the chains at the top have so much slop in them and was wondering if anyone has looked at some form of retracting reel or the excess chain? I was thinking about taking a cheap retracting reel (Retractable Reel) and re-purposing it so that I do not have the excess cables everywhere. Any thoughts on this would be great as I will probably start this endeavor on Wednesday or so of this week.
