Greeble 013

Rounded cylinder line

This is a another macro. You can specify the how many cylinders you want connected as shown, in a line.   Although you can not see it in this picture the end of each cylinder on the "other" end is slightly recessed which gives you a more interesting shape, with some shadowing.  Each cylinder has rounded edges.

This shape works well when half buried into another object.

Exposed Wiring.

Written as a macro that allows you to define the height, width, depth and the number of "wires" that cross the box.

Created for POV-Ray, script embedded below.
 
Note : at time of posting there is a bug with this script. Sometimes the "wires" bulge out the side of the box (depends on parameters you pass to the macro), if you work out a fix, please get in touch.
