You know that you can use circular edges, cylinders and discs, and scale
them by one coordinate to obtain elipse-like objects?  I dunno if this
helps?

Fredrik,
Well, I just firgured out how to use the circular pieces, but I don't know
how to get them to make elipse-like objects.  I need to lern how to do that
though.  I figure I will just have to experiment some.  Unless you know of a
tutorial for it :).


If you want a circular disc of diameter 10, use the 4-4disc.dat primitive
like this:

1 16 0 0 0 10 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 10 4-4disc.dat

If you want a 10x20 ellipse, do this:

1 16 0 0 0 10 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 20 4-4disc.dat
