I stumbled over your string art turtle some time ago and like one of the commenters on [1], I was wondering about your tool to create points from a image

Thanks! If you wanna do more, i wrote a bit about it on x/twitter, recently 3d printed an object to actually test such string art. if you have specific questions, happy to answer ofc! https://x.com/mknol/status/1993708617586077928
Nice collection, lots of variety. For "Fake Hyperbolic Plane..." [1] I can suggest looking up the Method of Apollonius, in order to make the circles all touch without overlapping or gaps.

These are great, thanks for sharing. Are there any resources you recommend for this? I have come across the book Turtle Geometry but haven’t read it.
