About this 3D model

I wanted to use a Greek style column for a project but all of my drawings lacked the characteristic subtle taper/bulge. I thought I would be able to eyeball it from reference pictures, but nothing looked quite right. A quick Google search turned up a new vocabulary word: entasis. Even better, Simon Brown at TAFE Queensland SkillsTech shared his slides on how to construct the perfect profile curve: https://www.slideshare.net/ozi/column-entasis Now, I have these perfect little columns that I want to print in every color available.
