The BRL-CAD Logo depicts two interlocked nodes. Modeling the new Logo in BRL-CAD in CSG (without NURBS, without polygons) requires some careful arrangement, but can provide an attractive three dimensional rendering that we can use for a number of purposes..
The output of this task will be a .g file of BRL-CAD logo and a rendered image. The two segments you model MUST be two or more regions hinged together (you can have center pins or not, you decide). This is your opportunity as an artist and 3D magician to come up with an interesting yet faithful interpretation.

Note that there are other logo modeling tasks and yours must start from scratch and be completely original. If we get a hint that yours was based off of or used measurements from some other model, you will be barred.
This command run within MGED should help give you an interesting render:

The final pieces are part1.c and part2.c The view in the drawing is ae: 225 40.
Yes, we do have an IRC channel. See here for instructions: http://brlcad.org/wiki/IRC
Your rendition of the BRL-CAD logo is spectacular, perfect. You're the first person to come up with a model design that fits what I originally imagined the logo looking like in 3D. Beautiful work.
Please join the brlcad-news mailing list if you're not done so already so that you can keep aprised of announcements including recognition of your logo work when we put it to use down the road.
