Most of these have front (first) surface mirrors in them that can be used in spirograph construction.

Peace,

Yeah the also have those mirrors, sadly mines was long and thick ( ;D ) and I cant cut it to shape for a spirograph. But they would be could if A) you got a thin one B) you have the correct tools for cutting glass.


there is also a line generator or two in there.

yeah they aren't that bad, but projectors are REALLY good they have a lot of lenses and filters etc, even diffraction gratings and beam splitters
 
just grab a glass cutter from a local hardware store - mine cost like $1.50 and allows you to cut your own custom mirrors ;)
 
I've disassebled one laser copy machine and it had some pretty nice motor controlled optics and mirrors  :)
Too bad I threw them away bc I didnt know any use for them at that time  >:(
