Curving an existing object

I am currently making detailed dry stone walls in N Gauge 2mm/foot.  Have made good walls dead straight the full bed width for my Mk4 printing, they print well, great detail, but are too regimented.  What software will allow me to bend that object around to make it a little more "random" along its length please?  Or have I got to rely on a hot air gun and luck?

RE: Curving an existing object

Someone else may chime in, but I'm not aware of any way of doing that directly in PrusaSlicer. There may be a trick in Blender, MeshMixer, or similar mesh modeler software to distort an object along a path, but I don't know any of those software packages well enough to say for certain.
