The f_ridge() inversion is unrelated to bump_size.

For reference, these are the functions used for the normals:
  f_ridged_mf (x, y, z, 0.1, 3, 7, 0.7, 0.7, 2)
  f_ridge (x, y, z, 0.1, 1, 7, 0.7, 0.7, 0)

Note: The scene file was written for POV-Ray 3.6; the last argument to
f_ridge() should be changed to 2 for 3.7+ compatibility.
