Why don't you use QuickDraw 3Ds RAVE interface. It supports all you need and is 
(relatively) easy to program, all you will have to develop is a efficient algorithm
for clipping (RAVE does not support it, only the QuickDraw 3D high-level interface
does). This would take advantage of the 3D hardware acceleration that more and more
Macs have build-in (all G3 Macs).  You can get the SDK at the usual Apple site. And as
RAVE is a part of QD 3D you don't have to worry (much) about licensing, I think, as QD
3D is available on most Macs today.
