If you are looking into programming this in Python, the forum has an API section where you might get better responses.

@MichaelT_123 any interest in chiming in ?

Hello, if I had this task I would start with a polygon. Draw construction lines from the center over the corners. then determine with which degree the first line is to be drawn. The steeper it is, the fewer spirals are required. make sure that the lines with constrains lie on the lines. then draw the lines with arrange on path. yes, that has to be done with each segment and well, - greetings mango

Hi Mr TippyLighting,

If the problem was presented by 'young && bright' my 'chiming' would cause the disservice to his/her development.

This simple geometric exercise should not be difficult, and as such even encouraged as the valuable exercise of writing few lines of the code required.

However if it was presented by ... 'old && #art' ... it is to late!

Thank You For The Trust In Me 😁

hello thanks for the help i should post to API I'm not very good with code and suspected from the start an equation was in order

yeah i figured that out last night thinking about it if I know the distance between each coil i could pattern points and join it with lines
