I didn't miss it, I just had no response. My thought was "Pfft. Just print it in PETG".

My suspicion is that the donut shop in Perkinsville was a practical effect using a scale model and forced perspective.

I haven't read Tom Holt, and it's too late. Internet has destroyed my ability to absorb long-form text. But he sounds like an interesting author. There's a lot of word play just in the titles.

Featuring YouSpace, a multiverse-based entertainment system, with doughnuts as portals:
  • Doughnut (2013), a disgraced physicist is bequeathed a very strange legacy.
  • When It's a Jar (2013), an ordinary fellow becomes a reluctant hero.
  • The Outsorcerer's Apprentice (2014), a fairy tale universe is exploited economically.
  • The Good, the Bad and the Smug (2015), Rumplestiltskin-based economies and Evil goes for a new, more appealing look.
  • An Orc on the Wild Side (2019)
