A gift for my wife. The toy, not the picture. She had one when she was a 
kid and still talks about it.

Can make the traditional Spirograph curves, in addition to some more 
exotic stuff I made up. I always thought the best shapes were the ones 
formed by "simple curve, move a few teeth clockwise, simple curve, etc." 
These, are, however, just one closed curve each to show the toy.

The computer version has the advantage of thick lines, outlined lines, 
bigger loops, etc. These are selected from a larger group of randomly 
generated curves.

If she makes anything with it, I might post it here.
