[Plugin] Hypocycloid Cam Profile Generator v1.0.0
Generate 2D profiles of hypocycloid cams for cycloid drives.
I push-pulled the face up manually.
This plugin is for creating profiles for CNC routing machines that will cut the cam.

OK driven and I are planning to 3D-ize this plugin.
The old CNC dxf way is out of style. John wants to use SketchUp to have cams 3D Printed.So we'll be making new 3D features. (But we'll leave the 2D layers with the 2D profiles.)
