High!

During Christmas, I managed to add a new component to my (still very 
embryonic) electronic organ: the pressboard base of the playtable, with 
the recess for the (yet to add) metal panel with the connector sockets.

Any comments? What about the pressboard texture?

See you in Khyberspace!

Very authentic.  (Here in the States, it's also called particleboard.) Yours
looks like the real thing.

The pressboard texture is very convincing. Had to run and compare with some 
actual pressboard, and your version compare favorably.

Or MDF: Medium Density Fibers. Cheap, heavy and makes LOTS of dust when you cut 
it. Also an exellent painting base.

Surprises me somewhat, it's quite simple:

#declare Pressboard =
texture
{
   pigment
   {
     granite
     color_map
     {
       [0 rgb <0.95, 0.92, 0.76> ]
       [1 rgb <0.76, 0.59, 0.45> ]
     }
     scale 0.01
     turbulence 2
   }
   finish { brilliance 0.09 ambient 0.1 diffuse 1 }
}

and, taking the poor lighting conditions in my parents' home's attic 
room into account, with only one small window on a gloomy December 
afternoon, with a decrepit CRT monitor slightly out of order (the screen 
image is way too green most of the time)... finally, I get a sense for 
colours in PoV-Ray!

See you in Khyberspace!

That's a pretty good particle board!
But why would you want to make that?
Or perhaps this is for an exploded view of its structure?
In the fully assembled state that would not be visible.

Not from above... but if I look from beneath the front part of the 
playtable, the pressboard is visible - that's where the connector 
sockets are hidden! For more than a year, I suspected that my organ had 
no headphone socket at all... unless I started modeling it in late 2005 
and looked below the playtable for measuring!

Well done for finding that! And for your attention to detail.
I have a Allen (c) 1953 electronic organ with valves and other vintage 
electronics, but alas no headphone out.
Perhaps I shall mod it!
