Also known as Do-nothing machine, bull-shit grinder or ellipsograph.

This unit works pretty well but you may need to adjust the tightness of the screw to get the best motion...not too tight or loose...just right!
Assembled with five #4 3/4" pan head screws.
I think this is the last variant I will make...took me quite a while to get the design right and to get the motion to work correctly.
Time to move on to other things!
