Hi All,

My partner is doing a visual arts course for which she needs to make a sculpture
out of common household objects.  I have a biggish pile of CDs and DVDs that are
surplus to requirements and we have some ideas about how these might be slotted,
cut up and joined to produce various potentially visually interesting things.

Before getting out the power tools and protractors we though we might model a
few options to get an idea of what "works" visually and what doesn't.  Having
messed about with POV-Ray a few years back I thought it might be the ideal tool
to try out our ideas.

Does anyone out there have a model of a CD/DVD (preferably with a realistic
looking shiny side and a printable label side that I can map an image onto)
that they might be willing to share?  Alternatively if you can give me a very
rough starting point that I can try to enhance that would be really great.

Very much appreciated.

JustIntonation.
