Thanks, Margus, for replying to my post. What I have
done so far is to use the prism and revolve it. What I
have to ask now is this: Is there a way to use 80 of these
and union them together (so there are no artifacts - I want
it to look like a smooth surface like an sor object). I
used the code below but need to somehow union them
together (I have thought and thought but have no idea
where to go from here).
Thanks for your help!
