Tubing chain
Just like an ordinary cable chain, but round. Because it’s round it can hinge at different angles enabling more possibilities.

Summary
This tubing chain works like a regular cable chain, but the individual links can be connected at an angle. This creates movements which otherwise are not possible with a regular chain. I have not experimented a lot with it and I made this for the water cooling tubes of the Creality printer I modded. The movement can be unpredictable and therefore it is recommended to print a couple of the standard links, so only Tubing chain shell and Tubing chain clip (easy), to figure out what the possible movements are. The rest of the parts are strongly dependent on how you want to mount it in your configuration. The rotating links are used to make even more complex movements possible where the chain is starting to twist.

Mounting instructions
It’s a puzzle. Start with a bunch of Tubing chain shell and Tubing chain clip (easy), to figure out what the possible movements are. If these are connected in the same orientation you get a standard cable chain which just looks different.
