    Not clear to me what your asking.
    The ratio could be setup in a mac wizard or g-code, unclear as to what you could do with it.
    Are you looking for the spiral sequence it forms or the frames that are used in everyday design work?

    Examples I use to make things more comforting when I design

    no ratio

    There are two ways to get the Golden Ratio. The first is the Fibonacci series which you mentioned. The second is way easier: it is the formula (1 + square root of 5) / 2.
