I am trying to create an epitrocoid, what could I be doing wrong?

I am attempting to make an epitrochoid with the parametric curve feature script (linked below)
https://cad.onshape.com/documents/578ff8b3e4b0e65410fcfda3/v/9e1cf9e0369f819849e1e2fd/e/0c17de6a800d4aed83de417f
I have tried a few times. Everything seems to look good until I press the checkmark. The curve doesn't show up and the feature script says "Parametric curve 1 did not regenerate properly: Error regenerating." (photo below). I was wondering if anybody would have any idea what it is that I could be doing wrong.

Can you send the link to your doc?

Here you go. Make sure all the units are consistent. The default is XYZ=0, but even if you're setting Z=0 it has to be 0 mm.

Of course! I believe I made my document public and here's the link:
https://cad.onshape.com/documents/d50e42cbee8def75b36c92e0/w/c51381cc9534edccbdb00ca4/e/f72791a89915a14e0234538a?renderMode=0&uiState=62824cd96d31f94cc5ed1d15

I haven't changed anything since I started having an issue, and maybe it's all just down to how I'm doing it.

Thank you so much! 
I'm not sure what my problem was but I'm glad to have a working epitrochoid document. 
Again, Thank you so much!
