Call me a pickled kiwi if I h'ain't just realised what by changin't
way I throw things together into a CSG, I can speed up my renderin'
a whole heck of a lot!

...that is to say, instead of constructing a top, middle, and bottom
pieces of a shell and merging them into one hull, with the t & b
being a sphere differenced from a larger one, then chopped with
a cylinder, I took two spheres and one cylinder and did an intersect,
then repeated for the inside space...

Really astonishing how much both the render AND Moray-response time
go up! :b....
