Simple csg with a nice (and fast) metal tex thanks to Rune. I have not
used a gradient y along the cylinder lengths (this was just to see how
fast the normal averaging technique rendered, and that would have
required a little too much modification), but it still came out looking
great.

Total render time ~ 9hrs on a P233. My old tex with a high frequency
spiralling normal took ~ 1 1/2 weeks to do half of this scene.
