Curved beer glass handle possible???
-
Since no one else has chimed in, maybe this idea will get you started.
Draw a center line for the handle.
Add sections--I used Chris Fullmer's Perpendicular Face Tools from the EW.
Use Curviloft.Clearly my handle isn't smooth enough but more segments in the centerline and maybe a few more profiles would improve it. Work at a much larger scale to avoid creation of holes. due to tiny faces.

And make sure to correct the face orientation.

Nah, it's an antihandle. Just don't put it anywhere near a handle, or they'll annihilate eachother

That would explain why none of my beer glasses have handles.
