This sounds like a wild proposal. I don't have the parts you are looking for,
but am curious. What would you use them to build? And if you were only needed

creation after a year anyway, and I think POV-RAY is just as good. What's
better, you'll actually have a snowball's chance in Edmonton to complete the
project.
