SPIROGRAPH ANYONE?

A friend of mine was extolling the virtues of his old Spirograph set the other day. I'd almost forgotten about it! Like me he loved it and could create amazing geometric wonders with the various cogs, pens and pins.

Rotadraw was a variation on the theme and may well have been by the same makers.

Did you have a Spirograph or Rotadraw set readers? What was it called in your neck of the woods?

Postscript:

Just tried the simulator in Richard's comment and its just too cool for school! Did this in seconds! Have a go!

  1. For those who never had one or heard of one, this simulator will help convey what it's like.

  2. Recall getting them as (Kellogg's) cereal premiums in the 70's, though not 100% sure.
