Trekki's prop has reflect and refract in the shader. In order to render and look like glass, it must have something to reflect and refract off of. So put in some sort of back drop or a room corner and maybe also put in BB's Environment sphere with and image on it. Render with at least 5 or 6 raytrace bounces. Give me a few and I'll do a render for you. I'm using Poser 8.
