This page is for people who have The Geometer's Sketchpad. If you don't have it click here to get Geometer's Sketchpad.
The first set of constructions are traces- where you make constructions and then animate them. If you trace a point, (mark it so that it leaves a trail) you will get a design consisting of mathematical curves. Some of these constructions leave short simple designs, while others leave immense complex patterns that don't repeat often. You can also get all of them. Download Traces. (46 KB)

I also have my tool folder, which is a folder installed to "Program Files/Sketchpad". Normally it is empty but for a few help files, but you can make your own tools. I have my Geometer's Sketchpad tools in a folder you can download. I have made 17 tools which were all I used to create this site. It includes everything but the preinstalled files, so you can copy it over to your "Tool Folder" directory. The next time you open Geometer's Sketchpad, these tools will be in the list in your custom tools bar (the lowest button). Geometer's Sketchpad Tools. These tools will help you to do Geometer's Sketchpad projects faster.
