Misplaced a decimal point while making a tripod for something. In pov, even
our accidents are pleasing.

Join the club. My ability to visualise the result of anything but a very
simple CSG is non-existent and I lack the patience to just throw numbers at
POV. I tend to reserve my experiments for textures and, God help me, media.

BTW here's the code.

#declare platform_struts =
union{
  cylinder{<0,0,0>, <0,2,0>,  1 rotate x*-45 rotate y*70}
  cylinder{<0,0,0>, <0,2,0>,  1 rotate x*-45 rotate y*35}
  cylinder{<0,0,0>, <0,2,0>,  1 rotate x*-45}
  cylinder{<0,0,0>, <0,2,0>,  1 rotate x*-45 rotate y*-35}
  cylinder{<0,0,0>, <0,2,0>,  1 rotate x*-45 rotate y*-70}
}

I love how in Art, many times the assumed reaction to a piece was entirely
unintended by the artist, for example, Escher, myself(..?..) :-) )

Looks good, may be worth keeping the code in it's current form.  It
looks like carved masonry that you'd see on the outside of a building.
