That seemed to work.  I can't make the sphere sweep "scale 0.02", but I can
make it "scale 0.2" and then scale the leg object at "scale 0.1" later on,
and it works.  I suppose it's just a matter of where the round-off is
occurring.  That's my best guess anyway.

I thought maybe I was missing something obvious.
