Make a Christmas Tree in the customizer.
in this version:
A. the sides of the tree follow a cubic curve. You will notice more curve if you make the branches number higher. (so Branches=1 no curve, Branches>4 you see a nice cubic curve)
B. you can set the branch overhang. (so overhang=0 no branches, overhang>1 nice branches) NOTE this can cause blobs if the overhang is higher than 5mm, but i think this can be a nice effect.
