Curt's response makes me wonder if I did not understand what you were asking Richard. Curt mentioned a swash plate, and I can say that I have done this. It will make a wave around the circumference of an object. The number of waves is controlled by the gear ratios. I had to resort to a chain and sprockets setup eliminating the swing arm. I have never shown the group this setup, but I did hint to the possibility when I was exploring options with the rotary table to create rose engine patterns. Curt's PDF file really shows some feasible options.
