I modified the part #4349 (Town Loudhailer) to have a more "textured" body.
Previously, the body was just a 4-4cyli with many 4-4edge's to represent the
"ribbing" in the body.  Unfortunately, this doesn't come across very well
when run through L3P -- the body comes out smooth.  I replaced the
above-mentioned primitives with a series of 4-4cyli's and ring7's.  It
looks passable in L3Lab, and POV-Ray.

Also:

-  Fixed my goofy 4/5 lines.

-  Shoved the handle into the body, adjusting the handle's length to
compensate, so that there are no gaps between the handle and the ribbing.

-  Added header stuff.

2 questions remain:

-  Is this good enough?  (I think so, but I'm not 100% sure.)

-  Who originally authored this piece?  (I think James Jessiman did, but I'm
not 100% sure.)

Cheers,
