    I had the whole thing written out nicely, then I hit the wrong button and lost it. So rather than rewrite it, I figured I'd attempt the "picture is worth a thousand words" approach.

    Realize there are probably a dozen different ways to do it, but here is one that comes to my mind immediately.

    Below is an image that should tell you more or less what you will need to do. This is assuming you are in command of the terrain editor enough. If you are not, don't fret, just ask away and we will fill in the blanks.

    When you finish editing you will simply attach this to the broken ends of the broomsticks, and the look should be acceptably convincing.

    Best of luck, please report back with your progress.

    I'm not sure if this is the tutorial you're referencing, but if you have Bryce 7, find the content folder, and under Tutorials, there's one by Peter Sharpe call breaking glass, with all the instructions and photos.

    Here's a picture of the final product:

    If you don't have it, I wonder if it's ok to repost it here?
