modelled in rhino last night when I should have been doing something else,
rendered in povray (scene set up & textured in moray) in a little under 2
hours.

I did have coloured wires going through the 'holes' but it caused in
incredible number of internal refraction's & refraction's it just looked
weird

Looks cool :)

How did you get those round edges? I'm trying to model a letter 'C' by taking a
sphere, subtracting a cylinder through the centre(so it look like an 'o') and
then subtracting a box. I wan to get rid of those sharp edges afterwards. I've
still got about 15 saves left on Rhino1.1...

Try fillet edge or fillet surface (don't remember which). Adjust the fillet
size until it looks good.

Bah, that's simple analytic geometry you people!  Sheesh, who needs
Rhino?  Give me a break... don't you know _any_ linear transforms?

(only kidding!!!)
