RE: Hammered Finish

> It would, but it might require a lot of analytic math to correctly position the "hammer" before each "blow". I haven't delved into every nook and cranny of the Javascript API yet enough to know if those kinds of interfaces are being exposed in the API. If not, then a PhD in Math is going to come in might handy in addition to some Javascript programming chops ;-)

Because the indentation is very slight, the hammer (for all practical purposes) is a large sphere. So orientation is not an issue. If you can randomly intersect a small portion of a sphere with a solid (the ring) and boolean diff, it may give the desired result.

If you want to experiment, try making a hammered finish on a flat solid. As long as there is some overlap in the random pattern, it may work.

I enjoy seeing the results of your experiments.
