As I was looking through some junk in my closet the other day, I stumbled upon this garage-sale relic. I think it’s some sort of circular plotter or spirograph, but I don’t know who made it or what it’s supposed to do. It doesn’t have any markings on it beside the ones you see in the picture.

Do _you_ know what it is?
