I have made a nice laser Spirograph and am looking into expanding it with the use of a micro controller.
It is kinda like this

But with one major difference, i want to be able to push a button and have the controller remember the speeds of the motors. and when i flick a switch it goes into a normal mode where i have a momentary switch when i clicked it goes to a new pattern.
so i need a setup to be programed while running i think i could use a ICSP to program it first then once i have gotten all the patterns be able to unplug and have a switch to go threw them. hope this is not to confusing.
