Bonsai model
A bonsai you can scan from above. Curved trunk, clipped crown, and a low ceramic pot.
Add a link and shape it into a compact bonsai. The tree and selected parts of the base share the QR pattern, keeping the build lighter.
The model
A small bonsai from the side. A QR code from above.
The trunk curves through the centre, branches spread at different heights, and leaf details stay below the flat scan surface.
Form
The trunk, branches, and pot remain easy to see.
A tapered brown trunk rises from a low pot and carries separate pads of foliage, giving the bonsai its trained, uneven shape.
Scanning
The scan surface stays clean.
Leaves and smaller details sit below the top pieces. Where the crown opens up, the base can complete the QR pattern without another tall column.

Bonsai questions
Before you build.
- Does the bonsai canopy contain the whole QR code?
- Not necessarily. In the recommended Form + ground mode, the raised bonsai surfaces and selected ground cells combine into one QR projection.
- Will decorative leaves block the scan?
- Leaf details are placed below the flat QR cap. Keep them in the instructed positions and always scan the finished model to confirm.
- Can I change the bonsai height?
- Yes. The height control changes the relief and estimated part count while preserving the same top projection.
- Are the bonsai instructions free?
- Yes. The PDF construction guide and both CSV parts files are free to download.
