Me, too.
But there aint no rings with a x-radius-difference of 1 and
z-radius-difference of 1.125. Or you need to have overlapping
rings. Even using ndis, segm (chord) primitives and triangles
filling up is not possible, because the outer edges of the
ndis primitive reach out beyond the size of the letter.
And for the letter C, the cutout is also quite hard to fit
using primitives.
For this part I might reccommend replacing the ndis and disc
primitives around and inside the O and C with quads or triangles
to eliminate gaps when ray-traced. The not true round shape is
no problem in such a small pattern.
