Kind of big!  Try posting a scaled down version.

Is this what you were trying to do?

camera {
 location  <0.0, 0.0, -10.0>
 look_at   <0.0, 0.0, 0.0>
 }

light_source {
 <-25.0, 15.0*ft, -10.0*ft>
 color rgb 1.0
 }

#declare T_Section =
difference {
 torus { 1.5, 0.25 rotate 90.0*x }
 box { <-1.78125, -1.78125, -0.28125> <1.78125, 0.0, 0.28125> rotate
45.0*z }
 box { <-1.78125, -1.78125, -0.28125> <1.78125, 0.0, 0.28125> rotate
-45.0*z }
  translate <-1.5*cos(radians(45)), -1.5*sin(radians(45)), 0.0>
 }

#local a = -1 ;
#while(a <= 1)

object {
 union {
  object { T_Section }
  object { T_Section rotate 180.0*z }
  }
  pigment { White }
   translate 4*(1.5*cos(radians(45)))*a*x
 }

#local a = a + 1 ;
#end

Render below.

Sorry, I thought I removed all my scaling tags.

Hi, Oleguer,

is this what you mean?

If so, you can't do this by using tori, this was done by placing a lot of
spheres using a while loop.

Why don't you do it with a difference between a box and a cylinder?

Could probably be done with Ron Parker's TorusSpline macro.
