728 Cable management tips?

[Aurelius]

Hi everybody,
Finally got the electrician out to run power and now the 728 is up and running.
So I have power overhead but I was wondering if you guys had any tips on managing all the other cabling, especially to the DRO. It seems like there is a lot of extra length there and I am not sure how to deal with it.
Should I just coil it up? If so, do you hang it somewhere or just let it dangle free?
Thanks

I ran my DRO cables back to the back wall, up the wall to the ceiling, across the ceiling and down to the DRO. That used up the extra length.

You can also shorten them, but it's kind of a finicky process, definitely not worth it to me.

I would loosely coil them and hang them up out of the way; just leave enough slack.

I believe there were 2 holes on the back of the column casting, possible even threaded. I 3d printed 2 round spools and wrapped the extra cable much like an extension cord. I run TouchDRO so just above this I mounted its box. It uses bluetooth and transmit to a Fire HD8 that sits on a mag base mount above the control panel.

You can use cable wrap or cable loom
