Creating a Dome

[d_sinsley]

I am new to this forum so forgive me if this has been addressed. But I am looking to make a model of a Tee Pee/Wigam Burner. I have designed a wire screen fabric that is flat.

I would like to "form" that screen into a dome. But I haven't a clue how to do it if it is possible at all. A friend who has acted as my tutor has explained that he thinks it can be done with the mesh tools but he has not personally done anything like what I am hoping to achieve.

Can you share the file you have already made. It could be done in the "Edit Form" section, and from what I have seen from works in the past, @TrippyLighting  is very good with Form modeling and T-splines. Not to throw you under the bus @TrippyLighting

Deforming a flat mesh into that dome shape is not possible with the tools in Fusion 360.

It has to be modeled in its final form:

I'd have to "flex" my Blender muscles to pull me out from under that bus 😉

Sorry about not having the file attached. For some reason I can't seem to have success attaching it. I'll try it again here. But you answered my question that it cannot be done in Fusion 360. And I have yet to really explore blender. For simplicity sake I can certainly design a simpler none woven mesh and make it work. Was just hoping is all. I like the woven mesh look but trying to make that work in any other form than on the flat is beyond my skill set.

Wigwam burner like these?
