You just have to adjust the texture. 

You could use the metal textures that come with POV-Ray.

Add in the beginning:

#include "metals.inc"

and use as a texture for example:

texture{T_Chrome_4A}


For the modelling:
The balls look a bit too small for my taste. There's too
much space between them and the inner and outer ring.
Just IMHO.

It's a pretty nice failure though.  Textures and ball-bearings need a change
like Marc said.  And of course the use of some AA wouldn't hurt.  Seems the
outer wheel needs to be thicker and smaller in radius, but definitely needs
those spheres to not be cut into like that.  Hardware "failure" as is  :-)

More of a clean shiny texture...
A smoother spline... (if that's what you used for the outer shape,
smooth is nice)
Smaller bearings...
Better placement of the ball bearings... ( they do not touch the inner
ring )
Overall it is a good attempt and a well made proto type...
Don't give up...
You only fail if you stop trying... =)

    I wondered why there wasn't enough jitter in the photograph. The corner
of the wall and floor behind the bearing.

It looked perfectly real to me. So you've fooled at least one person ;)
I did wonder why it was inside a small box room, but assumed there was a
reason for it.

Hmm, but if he hadn't I would never have known there were two images.  I
didn't scroll down before.
But anyway, it probably should be YACM (yet another cancelled message), don't
you think?

And I hadn't seen it the first time, the newsreader window stopped at the
words "see don't even try to get something real like this" not knowing that
meant there was another image below.

You have probably "Use same format, when responding" (or something like
that) set in your readers settings. No problems with text-posts, cause
attachments are skipped, but in this HTML-post there is no attachments, but
two inline graphics.

Moon47,

HTML is the answer. Could you please cancel the reply you made
with the duplicate images. Our news server resources have become
somewhat limited.
