How it is built

1. A leaf is one sweepA thin lens-shaped profile with a midrib, swept along a curved midrib line. The scale graph is the leaf seen from above: narrow at the stalk, widest past the middle, to nothing at the tip.
2. Nine leaves, each bent its own wayEach leaf has its own spine, so each one arches differently. Change one curve and only that leaf changes.
3. The pot is a turned shellA circle swept up with the pot's silhouette as the scale graph, hollowed by a second sweep, with a disc of soil inside.

Open it and pull on it

Download the model, open it with SweeperCAD and it lands on your asset shelf. Place it, then select any part: its profile, spine and scale graph are right there to drag, and everything downstream rebuilds - fillets included. Every curve stays editable; nothing is ever baked.
