Could you share some of the logic in this? Looks like the base cube setup for copying and unrolling and then a new state once the unroll finishes to enable velocities in a vellum solver?

Slowly building up a usd library of assets using the component builder in #Houdini and #Solaris starting from individual props to creating usd sets like this. I found that the default dicing value was too much for the sofa, so lowering it reduced the initializing time to near 0, for same quality
