How would I use a mesh/curve/etc. to manipulate a mesh, like curving a severly subdivided plane, making it… curved, like taking a piece of sheet metal and bending/shaping it…
That may be confusing, but I’m hoping someone will get what I’m asking for?
Too bad NaN gone, I really like the knowledge base and the tutorials…

you could use a lattice for that purpose pretty much does what you describe. create, place, parent your mesh to it, deform the lattice and enjoy.
Give this a go: Go into edit mode, select all vertices and press shift-W to warp. The 3d cursor is the pivot point. You’ll know what I’m talking about when you try it…
Yees, Lattice is definitely what I wanted… SHIFT+W is not what I wanted, at least for now.
