Anyone remember making one of these as children out of 6 rubber bands
and 6 old pen cases or lollypop sticks?
Found an old Pov2 source I had abandoned coz I couldn't figure the
maths for the rubber bits. Can't see what the problem was now :-\
There's a V notch each end of the rods that I can't make as visible as
they should be. Still working on the rubber geometry.

There's a shiny Chrome and blue steel spring version here that could
be bought at one time, 1024*768 203K:
