        You can use FredoScale's bend feature. In the past, with no such advanced plugins, there were the manual methods like this:

            hi,
            I'm surprised it's only 9 components, my suggestion is Chris's componentStringer, there's some good how to's on the thread.

            I'd use FredoScale on one shape to give me 3 or 4 versions to 'string', be nice to have some sag...
