Hi Guys, I don’t know if anyone will know what I mean but I will try to explain it... I used to have in the early ninety's , late eighties, its a drawing thing, it was about the size of your arm with lots of plastic cut out shapes in it and you could put it on to paper and move it around with your pencil and it would make a big flower etc... it wasn’t an etch a sketch and it wasn’t a spiral graph... it was burgundy coloured on one side and yellow on the other. Does anyone know what I am talking about? I am dying to buy another one! thanks.

Spirograph?

Are you saying that it produced larger versions of whichever plastic cut-out shape was placed in it when it was used?

A pantograph would do that. I don't recognise the description because mine was all red! look at this: http://www.jerrysartarama.com/images/resized/-1x-1/PRODUCTS/DRAWING_TOOLS/PANTOGRAPHS/0030315000000-ST-01-Pantograph.jpg

Sounds like some kind of pantograph.
