Back in the day there was a cat-scan website… Lots of arguments about cruelty to cats because of the scanners bright lights. Lots of great scans of cats.

Guys
Problem solved - nope, let’s be honest worked around.
You know that saying in Technology & Design “never update the software” with respect to CNC machines etc.?
well it seems if I install the latest and greatest from XYZ the printer is not recognised. If I keep the original versions everything works (whatever version of windows is installed). So now I have to work out a way of stopping the auto-update…
Now that is something I wouldn’t have thought about.
Will try it and see - anything is worth a go!
Tried that - no difference.
Tried setting com port and baud rate in Cura environment for USB Printing NG plug in. No joy (though monitor in Cura stops complaining the printer is offline, it won’t do things like pre-heat the head)
Real head scratcher.
Nope - that’s the one thing I didn’t do (because 3D maker worked with out it)
Thanks for the reminder though - I will try that in the morning.
I didn’t claim anything :) - the words “pure guess” are a give away.
Pure guess here…
signal uses “magic” to encrypt messages at rest.
Part of this magic relates to the hardware.
Change the hardware and you won’t be able to decrypt the messages.
So try to move a message database to a new machine (either because you want to or because someone else has snaffled it) and you won’t be able to decrypt the database.
All bikes are repairable, some are more repairable than others. It all depends on how scared you are of getting your hands dirty and how confident you are that you can think your way out of problems.
My point is that a bike can be really simple and, as such, anything should be possible.
Modern innovations usually mean a set of tools beyond the basic bike set but the specials are available (bottom brackets are a particular case in point - you use to be able to get away with ponty things and gentle hammering - despite there being tools designed for the job now it’s use our tool or forget it)
So I would avoid anything too new - get a rat bike from a scrappy and learn how it works whilst rebuilding it.
