Another problem I have, but better to ask than hammering the head



I need to deform that cylindrical object to make a dish as seen on reference images, it is possible with bend/bend clamped options ?
I tried some configurations but without any good result.

Thanks in advance for reply/replies

Why not start from a sphere. I believe you will need about a quarter of its height.

Anyway, you can try Tweak with Magnet enabled - Dome is the default modifier.
Check out my video about a grenade in case you don't have idea about how to use it. (I'm answering you from a tablet now - it's horrible to write here )

I thinking about sphere earlier.. hmmm
I'll give it a try. Thanks, micheus

MLab has a bowl bend in it.

A sort of 2D bend ... surfacy bend. Just FYI. It bends flat things into bowls.

Ohh yes I see.
It is in object mode. Another great MLab feature ^.^

Anyway I do this from sphere yesterday as micheus suggest, and tweaked a little by 'bowl bend' now.

Thanks guys !
