Are you talking about objects created in POV, or ones you have exported 
from other 3D software? IIRC one of the command-line converters I used 
to convert to POV (maybe slp2pov.exe?) had the option of generating 
cylinders and spheres along the edges of a configurable diameter. This 
looked really good for renders of technical objects.
