  @Luckypriest Or at least give me recommendations / links for the parts and a friend of mine and I might try to wing it for fun.

  @bearer yes, 3b+ is also pxe enabled (3b is not by default but can be enabled easy you just need to boot from sd card once) and as I said there's supposed to be a special distro for the host node (that I'd probbly run inside VM) .. I found the info here: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/network-boot-raspberry-pi-without-microsd/ and they talk about new feature in Raspbian, PiServer and single server runs the Raspbian x86 distribution as a server, now as I said, have not tried it yet .. I did try regular PXE boot using fedora box as a server and it worked ok but with 40 of them I hope they have some nice tools in that "piserver" thingy

  Thanks for the input; sound or balancing was the first thoughts, but the dots are of varying size and locations, and only on 5 of 6 blades so I'm not sure anything made sense. But I eventually stumbled onto which seems to suggest someone just had a bad day at work while (over) balancing it and getting it right on the 5th try. Oh well, specs say it moves the same air as the original, sounds about the same but has tachometer output so I can monitor it. Happy times ahead.

  Over the weekend I did a couple slices with Superslicer (PrusaSlicer fork) which did not cause the reset. I'll try to come up with minimal gcode with as little differences as possible to see if I can isolate what causes this. It will take some time though since I'll be traveling for work this week.

  @wilriker said in udev + bossa = failure to autorecover?: @bearer said in udev + bossa = failure to autorecover?: seems there has been an update to usb-ids as well pi@raspberrypi:~ $ lsusb Bus 001 Device 039: ID 1d50:60ec OpenMoko, Inc. Duet 3D Printer Controller Not really. 1d50:60ec has been in there for a very long time already. I added 1d50:60ed for Maestro and 1d50:60ee for Duet 3. Already back in October last year. But it still didn't make it into the release. ah, not often i have a wifi/ethernet connected, come to think of it I might initially have defered derived(?) the pid as 60ec based on maestro and duet 3. my bad.

  @bot said in supported code high lighters on forum - add gcode?: Line numbering may get confusing when only snippets of a larger file are copied and pasted. This isn't line 3, it's actually line 4250!! I've used ```text since the numbers were introduced as shown by Ian for this very reason. Line numbers will be usefull when referring to posted configs (snippet or not) etc, just not always if referring to source code maybe.

  OK, switched over to M675 for XY. Works great. Doing the X, Y, X again thing... still in the square hole. I will make a round hole plate tomorrow.

  Where is X0 Y0 and what position ar X and Y when the tool head is at the far right? I don't know the Ft-5 but the folks I know who home to the back right do so out of convenience just to get the tool head out of the way. As far as the coordinate space goes, X0 Y0 is still the front left. So I guess the real answer is "It depends".

  No, you need to configure new axes using M584 U, V and W axes
