Hi everyone,  
I’ve been testing shapr3d since yesterday, so I’m new and in general not particularly expert in 3D design programs.  
I’m trying to create an organic shape, starting from a cylinder, I would like three legs to protrude from the base (like a sort of stool). I created the shape I would like in Fusion360 (I attach some screenshots) and I would like to recreate it in Shapr3d, so far I have tried but without success I would say.  
Can anyone give me some advice on how to proceed? Bear in mind that I have absolutely no knowledge of the software.

Thank you very much and in the meantime have a wonderful day

Project circle edges on the surface of the cylinder. Then use Move-Rotate to distort the surface.
