Harmonograph Drawing Machine

Background

We wanted to make a drawing machine that would draw patterns in it's own special way. A Harmonograph is a drawing machine that is actuated by the harmonic motion of pendulums. We wondered if we could make a similar machine using motors instead of pendulums, which would be mounted on the wall of the Fablab, calmly drawing wonderful patterns in it's own way.
