Constant width for MBorcherds

Proposition: [i]To construct a family of curves of constant diameter.[/i] I followed Michael Borcherds' partial construction, [url]http://www.geogebratube.org/material/show/id/3597[/url], making corrections along the way. Specifically, I have given precisely the set of curves of constant diameter which can be created using his worksheet. But the family of curves represented here is still incomplete, and limited to a particular case of the general problem. How might this construction method be generalized? (more to come!)
