Well, his solved the problem nicely. Yours still lacked the critical 
clips for the edges. ;) And those where likely to be harder than 
clipping the tips... Now I just need to figure out how to do the 
carving.. On one hand, I can just us the font to chop into the surface, 
for the solid one, and as a colored "inset" for the crystal, but some of 
the other bits are going to require fiddling with height fields. Just no 
other way to do it for the two main symbols..

Anyway, thanks all. Would have probably figured something out 
eventually, but nice to have help on something this unnecessarily 
complicated. lol
