Hi Tim, referencing your sketch it seems that you would like to have a dome-shaped body at both corners.  
Here’s a short video on how to create a dome shape using the revolve tool:

We also have a great thread on generating dome-shaped bodies:

So far I have been lofting a circle to create the staggered base, but now I need to add the cap and I haven’t been able to figure out how to get a nicely rounded peak. For the record, I am not a professional Shapr3D is my first foray into real modeling (TinkerCAD is what I have been using until now), so more detail on any explanations would be greatly appreciated.
