In your definition you also need to give the atomic positions.
I feel that there is something wrong, the size of the reciprocal cell is 
inversely proportional to the crystal cell so the k points should 
reflect this, I tried this case (with one atom) and I got 55x55x16, 
which is correct; 13.2122/3.909 ~ 55/16 instead of your 36x36x36
I don't think that you need such a large # of k-points for a fairly good FS.
