irregular concave filling?

Hi,

 

I'm trying to learn Fusion 360. I'm trying to rebuild some already existing objects. Currently it's an headband/ear piece of HTC VIVE Pro.

I'm stuck for more than one day with what is visible on my screenshot. I'm trying to add concave filling. I'm not even sure if it's really called like this because it's not constant same radius.

 

Here is an image how the product looks. I hope you can see/imagine the radius/concave that I'm talking about.

Any tips/tricks/hints/advices/suggestions how to do it? Or what i have to search for?

Your pretty close as you are.

 

Loft the top circle, down to the lower plate, you will get straight faces, with the direction control on the lower profile, you can pull the curve into it.

 

You will have to bore the hole again, because loft will not do donut shapes, but a full block, then Extrude Cut the tube.

 

Research, Loft, with direction Control.

 

Might help....

This shape is more complex than a cut-off cone shape.

Although, if the purpose of this exercise is to 3D print a somewhat similar looking replacement part that might actually work.
