Elliptical torus-es?

[Philippe Hurbain]

The same problem exists with rings, but you can get around that using different primitives, such as chords and n-discs, as I've done in the two files below. (I'm trying to make both a flat and a rounded version; I've figured out the L and the E, but not how to make the round-topped version of G and O.) So maybe there is some way using another kind of primitive?

With some drawbacks (flat area, variable width bevels) you can apply a similar method. Attached your file with my proposal for O. Far from perfect, but looks rather good...
