========================================== 3DSystems Cube 3D 2nd Gen Backup by Cam

I have included a .hex with the v2.08 software on it. So far through my testing the "crap hack" still works despite some other on the 'cube3d.createaforum' saying otherwise. I've attempted to write a tutorial on how to flash your printer.

I don't have Ko-fi but if you did want to buy me a drink here's my PayPal :D : https://paypal.me/cameronbsh

1. Download "cube_v20.8.hex" onto your PC
2. On your printer, tap "Setup" then scroll to "Update Firmware"
3. It will prompt you to remove your USB Stick then click "next"
4. Connect your PC to the Printer using a USB A to USB Type B cable.
5. Tap "next" and it should say "SETTINGS SAVED"
6. It will prompt you to press and hold the button for 6 seconds
7. If done successfully it should read "CUBE FIRMWARE LOADER V1" on the screen
8. Open the Cube Software
9. Click "Configure" in the bottom right of the app
10. Click "Load New Cube Firmware"
11. It should attempt and fail to make contact to the 3DSystems servers. After dismissing this message it should prompt you to pick a file to flash. Pick the .hex file.
12. After flashing your printer should be running v2.08!
