Help with a cone in a helix shape

Help with a cone in a helix shape

I have been trying to put this together, and it just doesn't seem right.
(my first ascii).  The bottom should look round and the lines up and
around should look like a ribbon.  The center post is essential and the
ribbon should go around the helix 3 full turns like this one.  Can
anyone diddle this one a bit better?  It looks more like a beaker with a
sharp point right now.  Full credit will be given!  Feel free to
completely re-do this if necessary.
