Attach to a "curved" surface (by Jack)
I'm trying to model a coffee mug. i can create the mug with 2 revolves but for the life of me i can't figure out how to attach a handle to the "curved" surface of the mug. Handle-less mug attached. Any suggestions?
another attempt (by Jack)
I think i'm a bit closer. Would welcome any feedback on my methods though.

I would use a bit of construction to sink the plane for the handle drawing just below the surface, as in the example attached. I have shown 2 ways for drawing the handle. Note, you can always use "suppress this group's solid body" when you need to draw inside a solid object.

Thank you for the helpful example Andrew. I really appreciate it.

Sorry Andrew, I posted the wrong name, then discovered there's no way to edit a post.
