I'm not quite sure how you modelled it, but I was under the
impression that both height_field objects (and also meshes,
which might be created for spherical versions, when closed
and using inside_vector) are solids and can be used in CSG?

See this is why I love these type of newsgroups.  I've been wondering about

possible it opens up a heap of new possibilities!

Passing comments like these can sometimes be priceless!
