How to create twisted objects?

Hi all,

Saw this tutorial and thought the twisted vase effect looks great. Noted author said this was made using fusion 360.

Anyone know how to create a twisted effect like this in Fusion 360?

Know how to do this in 3dsmax, but stumped as where to start in Fusion

Here is a simple vase with a captured fiber path. The path is on a 30 degree twist along the path which is adjustable as well as the count. If this suits, then I could do a Screencast on the process.

Here is one way of doing it. It uses a sweep of a profile along a split surface as a path.

If you are comfortable doing this in 3DS max, then check out the T-Spline/Form modeling tools.
