I have an irregular csg object and I want to have objects ( cylinders ) 
stand perpendicular to the surface.  Imagine the csg as being a box, sphere 
and cylinder union.

I'm familiar with using "trace" to place objects (cylinders ) on a surface, 
but I want these objects to stick out from the csg object.

I've set up a model where I can use "trace" to identify where the object is 
to be placed on the surface of the csg but the vector I need to rotate the 
object ( cylinder ) through is beyond me.

Tips Hints anybody?
