Spirograph - Guilloche generated from PS layer

[HudsonsHalfHour]

I’m looking to take an object or layer in PS and make Spirograph/Guilloche designs or patterns based on the shape of said layer. Is there an easy way to do this in illustrator or PS? I’ve tried to use Excentro, but can’t get my head around it and I’m not even sure you’re able to import an object to use as the basis of a Guilloche design. Any help would, um…really help!

i suppose you can't just Rotate and copy the object? Fake Spirograph?

I know there is a script that does some similar effect...scriptographer maybe is the site?
