OK, attached should be an image of a Moebius strip I knocked together in 
HamaPatch and Moray.  Hamapatch for the modelling, and Moray for the 
scene layout and textures.  OK, so jpeg mangled it a bit, but at least 
it's small :)

Let me know if you want the .hmp file for it. (assuming that you're a) 
using Windows, and b) have downloaded HamaPatch)

Bye for now,
     Jamie.
