Hi Pat!

Seems like you're german (Ausguss and whatnot), so if need be, feel free to
email me in german.

Regarding this object of yours: It would be wiser to convert the
output-image to jpeg and post it in povray.binaries.images and ask for some
advice there as well. Nontheless, helping with modelling is a difficult
task.

In this case, you might want to draw a sketch and design this object with
torus as well, as it may provide some smooth curves for various places.
Aside of that, you might have to model it with something completely
different, like using SPatch or such, since POV's CSG is more suited to the
hard-edged stuff, unless you spend lots of time and skill.

Regards,
Tim
