Mirrors two more pieces of Tiger-Scale-V3's own README on the TigerScale page: the board and load-cell photos next to the parts table, and the assembly render gallery + real-hardware photos + wiring diagram (linked to the interactive Cirkit Designer schematic). Adds a "Wire the components" step pointing at the diagram, and trims two bits of text that ended up duplicated by their own photo captions.

Mirrors the two photos and captions from Tiger-Scale-V3's own README
(the -3.5B/-3.5 board variant and the load-cell/HX711 pairing), placed
right after the parts table where the firmware repo already shows them.

real-hardware photos, and the wiring diagram with a link to the
interactive Cirkit Designer schematic. Adds a "Wire the components"
step pointing at the diagram, and drops the board-variant trap note
now that the board photo's own caption already covers it (it was
saying the same thing twice), along with the load-cell table note
duplicated by its own photo caption.

It approximated GitHub's algorithm by decomposing to NFKD and dropping
combining marks, so a French heading like "Schéma de câblage" slugged
to "schema-de-cablage" — but Starlight's real slugger keeps the accented
letters, so the anchor it actually renders is "#schéma-de-câblage". The
checker was flagging a same-page link that works fine on the real site,
because it was the first FR anchor in this repo to carry an accent.
A DYMO-class HID scale reads weight but has no RFID reader; a TigerPOD
reads NFC but doesn't weigh. Stacking a TigerPOD on the scale gives
Tiger Studio Manager both signals from one physical setup — spelled
out as a 7-step walkthrough with a photo of the actual combo.
Mirrors Tiger-Scale-V3's own docs/SERIAL-PORT.md as a new tutorial
page (per-OS driver install, Windows getting the full copy-paste
treatment), linked from a new Troubleshooting section right after the
wiring diagram on the TigerScale page.

#31 added this setup as a "Recommended setup" section at the foot of the page,
after Interactions, while the existing third-party-scales section a few lines
up still called the same scales "a third-party option, not a Tiger product".
Read together, the page recommended against itself.

It is an official alternative for anyone who does not want to build: a USB
scale and a TigerPOD, both plugged into the computer, and Tiger Studio does
the rest. The procedure now opens that section, the section is named for what
it offers, and "Building one" points non-builders at it before the build
steps begin. The scale stays described as third-party hardware; the setup is
what is official.

Also restores the symptom #31 dropped from the -3.5B / -3.5 warning — a scale
that starts perfectly and never sees a tag, with nothing on screen to say
why. It is the sentence that saves the day of debugging.

Starlight writes one hyphen per space. A heading like "Printer link — Live"
loses its dash but keeps both spaces around it, so its anchor is
`printer-link--live`. The checker collapsed the run into one hyphen and
computed `printer-link-live`, which does not exist.

Measured against the built site: of 544 headings, the checker's slug matched
the real id for 442; one hyphen per space matches 541 (the remainder are
duplicate headings Starlight suffixes). So a correct same-page link to any
heading with a dash, a plus or an ampersand in it would have been refused, and
a broken one accepted.

Found while verifying #31's fix to the same function, which was right about
the accents.

Merged — thank you. The hardware photos, the assembly gallery and the wiring diagram all check out against Tiger-Scale-V3's README, and the images were sized properly this time.

Your check-i18n fix was right, and it caught a real bug in our own gate. Starlight keeps accents in heading anchors (id="accroches-validées" in the built site), so the old slugger approved links that 404 and refused correct ones. Verifying it turned up a second bug in the same function: Starlight writes one hyphen per space, so "Printer link — Live" is #printer-link--live, and the checker was collapsing that into one hyphen. Measured over the whole site, it got 102 of 544 headings wrong. Fixed in 159e726.

Three follow-ups landed on top, so you know why the page changed after merge:

  • The DYMO + TigerPOD setup is now presented as the official no-electronics alternative. As a "Recommended setup" at the foot of the page, it sat a few lines below a section calling the same scales "a third-party option, not a Tiger product", and the page read as recommending against itself. The procedure now opens the USB-scale section, the section is named for what it offers, and "Building one" points people who don't want to wire anything straight to it.
  • The -3.5B / -3.5 warning got its symptom back. Replacing the callout with the photo caption dropped the one sentence that saves a day of debugging: the scale starts perfectly and never sees a tag, with nothing on screen to say why.
  • The sidebar conflict with yesterday's FlashForge entry was resolved on your branch before merging.

One note for next time: the description covered two of the five things in this PR, and one of the three it didn't mention was a change to a CI gate. Everything held up, but a gate change needs its own PR and its own description, so the reviewer reads it as a gate change and not as a side effect of a photo gallery.
