Picture the little aluminum disk riveted to the top of a Weber kettle. It

I want to make something similar in concept, but with different dimensions.
I find I have no idea how to shape e.g. a 4" soft aluminum circle so it
will lie close to the OD of a rounded 3D surface like a tank end.

This is for making a smoker vent ..
