  I'll post an image in the images group that I would like to hear how you
would csg a similar shape or I would like to hear your concession that
modelling it with triangles was the logical choice. Bear in mind when
you view the image the object pictured was constructed for Pov v2.2 quite
some time ago and was never really meant for public display.

I will post it under the thread title of "Triangles for Estonia" :-)
