    The machine will hold a pen and create sprials as you can see in the videos below.
    The weights for the legs will be water filled.

    I am not finshed with it yet but I will let you know when it's done I will post the plans here.
    I think its going to take a lot of foam to build the base so I need to set it up where you can just cut the top part out if you want and set it up on a table.

    I used to have a Harmonograph when I was a kid. They make really cool patterns. Maybe I can leave it drawing designs on my foamies while i'm cutting another one out :lol:

    I was kicking around on you tube one night and found that I was like I can make that out of flat parts! So I went for it. I hope I get the time soon to finsh up the plans and see if it even works. One of you guys might have to cut it out and build it for us all so we can see it in action.

    I did finally build one of these, but never posted the plans because they were unfinished and rough.
    I will see if I can get some pics and the plans together
