[Dave Clucas]

Have a look at this.

You will find a symbol which I defined for a stalagmite boss which I guess is what you are talking about.

def p_u_boss (expr pos,theta,sc,al)=
  T:=identity aligned al rotated theta scaled sc shifted pos;
  pickup PenD;
  p := (0.08u,0.25u)..(0,0.29u)..(-0.08u,0.25u);
  q := (0.16u,0.5u)..(0u,0.58u)..(-0.16u,0.5u);
  for i=0 upto 9:
   thdraw p rotated 36i;
   thdraw q rotated 36i;
  endfor
  p := fullcircle scaled 0.15u; 
  thdraw p;
enddef;
To use a user defined symbol click on type U in the points drop down and then after the U, type in a colon followed by the name of your symbol so, in the case of the above "U:boss"
