Anton's parts are defined smaller and use different coordinates so to use
them you have to scale them x2.5 (scale 2.5), rotate (rotate <180,-90,0>)
and translate them to correct position.
Also you have to include his libraries:
#include "material.lib"
#include "library.lib"

I used to do it by hand editing the .pov file but it's time consuming!
L3P on the other hand could do it automatically! :-)
