  I managed to make a derivative macro which generates only 1/4 of a 
sphere, cutting from it (randomly) the curved boards. The mesh file only 
takes 6MB and was generated quickly. Thanks to you and Rune for this great 
macro! Also, your suggestion to use it was really clever and "ready to 
use": wow!

  I've attached the result: it needs still some work on the "wooden" 
function for the mesh, but it's promissing.
