My coiled cable likes to rotate which makes the coil messy. This little 3d print I made keeps it nice and tidy. Hope it helps anyone with similar issues. You can find the files here: https://www.printables.com/model/433584-coiled-cable-lockaligner
Made a aviator cable mount to keep my coils alligned

Huh. Here’s a problem I didn’t know you could have.

"Problem" is probably a stretch lol. It just looked sloppy before IMO

And this is one of the reasons why I don't like 'em. They're way too overengineered, IMO. Which is weird because so many mk enthusiasts prefer minimal setups. In my case for instance, I just have a braided Type-C cable running straight from my board to the back of my desk. Just a simple, straight line. Easy to connect/disconnect/clean/maintain/replace. Minimal. I personally don't see why/how an aviator cable could improve either the aesthetics or the functionality. In fact, I can only think of downsides.

Fanciest cable setup in the world but the desk is super scuffed :D

Nah, its just a cheap "marble" laminate countertop I use for a desk. Can't convince myself to get a nice wood one when this holds up and looks decent
