Post new large polargraph

Hey gang.
I've been playing on a small board for a few days and the infection set in.

I had an old ping pong table in the basement that was sitting all warped, musty and unused so I stripped it down and rebuilt it to work as a large polargaph.

Its a nice 5x4' so it should be able to run off some decent prints.
Im sure I'll have plenty of questions and run into plenty of snags.

Wish me luck.

A couple more photos.
And an early vertical test that ran on the side of a dresser.

Something about knowing about these machines that makes me look at every flat, movable surface as a potential drawing board... Looking good!

Well.. It's alive and kicking.

I can see some errors in the print probably caused by one of my wheels being ever so slightly out of round..

I asked in another thread but I'll ask again.
How can I use spiral on an uno?
Better can I use spiral on my mega with this motor shield v1
Thanks.
I just wasn't sure if spiral and/or Norwegian worked with the uno firmware.
