3D editable texts

Hello everyone.
I found an easy and quick technique to create 3D shapes made of text wich can be edited while running (eg. you can type letters)

http://www.openprocessing.org/visuals/?visualID=9249

Only works with pixel fonts (8, 16, 24px... ) and the P3D renderer.

Starting from this sketch, it is possible to create - for example - a class that only displays 1 char, as in this image:

...

Now I would like to use jBullet to add phsics to the 'thing'.
For example i would like to see what happens if these shapes are released froma certain altitude and even how they collide to each other.
I'll will post the results.
