Need some geometry help

[old man emu]

Have a look at Post #63 where I quote Paul Bourke's response to the negative sin and cos segments.

He agrees that a solution that does not go down the pow() track is to create in the quadrant where ALL are positive, then mirror the other three quadrants.

That way you could use various values for n1 and n2 to make a family of supertoroids.

What are you using for a print bed? Do things stick to it OK? Any problem removing stuff?

The heat bed is made from de-oxygenated ferrous oxide onto which an initial protective coating of Hexavalent chromium has been deposited by electrolysis. The print release agent is the extract from the embryo of the Olea europaeao applied as an aerosol. I've found that semi-denatured protein from the nucleus of the ova of Gallus gallus domesticus will adhere to the surface during post-processing. These supertoroids appear to have a negative Coefficient of Friction. No matter how many Newtons are applied as a restraining force, they simply fly off any type of presentation plate.
