That sounds great Paul. What I've been doing is working with the internal
scripting of Rhino to stripe and weld the internal structure. Since I use
the DATs via DXF conversion and I use POV objects by parseing out the CSGs
into a command file and then converting that to a mesh and then throw it all
into the bag and shake REAL hard I've come to the conclusion that I may be
on the wrong trail. I'm looking into useing a external noe to do this and
convert to Rhino format. We'll see.....
