(...) Hi David, The short answer is that there are no seams, only lines. Since a line is a one-dimensional object it is invisible in POVray. The long answer is that POVray won't show edge lines because they are not really useful and don't fit with (...) (18 years ago, 23-Sep-06, to lugnet.people.newbie, lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

(...) Thanks Niels, but the kudos go to Koyan Derudder (URL). All I did was take his work and put it in magazine format, along with a model that's easy to build. Koyan did all of the hard part, and we should be thanking him. :-) (18 years ago, 10-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
