Has anybody done something like this?

This would depend on whether or not L3P's production of clear parts provided
a plausable index of refraction for the plastic that the pieces are made
of.  If so, then a magifying glass should work just fine when rendered by
POV-Ray.

(...) I didn't mean a part which was transformed with L3P, I meant to model the magnifying glass individually in POV-Ray, and including this model in an L3P'd model. Anyway, I am quite sure that POV-Ray does this refraction. The amount of refraction (...) (26 years ago, 27-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad)
