This is interesting ...

I've worked on a few original parametric surfaces. It is available
within the Eureka 2.12 software I wrote, and some viewable there :

               <http://eureka.atari.org/vrml/>

This is exported from my software in VRML 1&2, POV-Ray and Mathematica.
I've also worked for K3DSurf software, on a few parametric surfaces here

               <http://eureka.atari.org/merryhappy.png>

I'm not supporting implicit formulas yet, so you may discover a lot
of original parametric formulas, both in K3DSurf and Eureka 2.12 :-)

Usually, with most software available, surface's formulas are not
given with those. This is not the case with the free software.

I hope you'll enjoy =)

Best regards,
