Title: Write a brief 1-page tutorial on creating metaballs
Description: BRL-CAD is a modeling system that supports a lot of different basic "primitive" object types.  This task involves writing up a brief 1-page tutorial on one of them, for metaball objects.

You'll obviously need to have BRL-CAD installed (there is an installation Task) and it'd help to know how to use MGED (there are tutorial Tasks).   You can see examples of other primitive tutorials on our wiki:
* https://brlcad.org/wiki/EBM
* https://brlcad.org/wiki/DSP
* https://brlcad.org/wiki/Sketch
* https://brlcad.org/wiki/Annot

Lots of details on nearly all primitives including links to additional information on creating them is also on our wiki:
* https://brlcad.org/wiki/BRL-CAD_Primitives
* http://brlcad.org/gallery/renderings/primitives/niceballs

SUBMIT a tutorial that shows how to create one, inspect one, and has at least one image/rendering/screenshot.
