I originally saw this as a structure and was going to do a figure study, but AS beat me to it. So, keeping in mind the structure, and the fact that it is Spring, and Time seems to fly....

Cool Idea

Pendulum? Isn't that Gallilei or Newton or someone's theory that the line would steadily grow thicker as the earth revolved?

This thing makes patterns like the old SPIROGRAPH toy. They still use it in the UK to design the patterns on banknotes...true, no kidding. Only one guy in the whole country knows the set ups so that no-one can forge/reproduce paper currency. The Bryster

I've seen one like this, only indoors. The point is that a free pendulum goes back and forth in a 2-dimensional plane, but the Earth revolves under it. It's even possible to time things with it. It does have something in common with a Spirograph (wonder why there's not a software version out there?..anyone know of one?..;)

There's a nice pendulum at the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, it knocks down little pegs every hour. Interesting tidbit Bryster!

Maybe that could another challenge......design a MACHINE! Any machine, but it must look like it does something practical...........

There are a few Spirograph sites out there. This one is fun :)

Fractals will always amaze me!
