Hi(gh)!

Finally, I got the display table with the 44 stone1 and stone2 texture 
samples together... as I also want to include some information about the 
includes and their programmers in the front right portion of the 
cardboard base: could Dan Farmer and Paul Novak supply me with portrait 
images? I also will add a touchscreen display showing the code of the 
includes in the front right corner of the table's glass cover...

Yes, the whole thing should grow into an official raytraced POV-Ray 
museum, located at Port Whatmough's Academy of Raytraced Arts (ARA), 
established in 2346 CE in Port Whatmough, Whatmough, HD 28185 system...

And, no, there will be no ficitious death dates with the programmers, as 
they happened to have immigrated there by relativistic interstellar 
travel and thus are still alive after 350 years...

See you in Khyberspace!

Nice.

The actual hardware might need a bit more of work (realistic ior in
glass ?, a softer plan colour ?, some actual key & lock system to be
able to open the display table ?)

More important, your spheres should rest on some torus. Classical torus
are in light wood, but for the exhibition, you might use torus made of
the same stone. (personal ...: I would replace the sphere with ovus, as
egg shapped stone are more "natural" than perfect sphere out of the
polishing barrel). you might also use a bit of variation on the second
factor of the ovus.

A bit of math should provide the relevant parameters for the torus to
sit a sphere or egg (approximated as a sphere for it's bottom part as
long as the second factor of ovus is less than half the first one).
