Don't know how he did it, but you could do it:
- using a lathe object
- using a sor (ahem, no, impossible: multiple points with same y value)
- using a CSG of a cylinder, a cone and a torus (hard to adjust the torus on
the cone)
- using a non-standard transformation of a superellipsoid (hard to figure
out).

So I think it was a lathe object (I would use one) here. OR a CSG of a sor
and a cylinder.

But your tip was very useful. Is this default bozo documented somewhere
(except for the source code, which I didn't have a look at yet)?

O sorry again. I should have read a bit further. It was in the MorayPOV.inc,
not in POV-Ray. I am rather new to Moray, but I like it.
