Default Spiral Model of Solar System

Here is a way to present a simple model of the solar system showing the spiral paths of the gas giants in relation to the path of the sun around the galaxy, using the following parameters to represent Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune as spiral coils with radius and frequency/wavelength relative to their actual orbits. Any assistance in either referring me to such a model, or in building one would be welcome.

Code:
Planet	Wavelength	Radius
Jupiter	1	1
Saturn	2.501	1.853
Uranus	7.110	3.680
Neptune	13.896	5.577
