The next step is to create a sketch profile handles. There are two profile that we will create, which is at the top and at the bottom. And we need a new plane to place the sketch profile. In this model I made a new plane that I put on the outer side of the glass. The command to create a new plane that is on the menu select Insert>Reference Geometry>Plane, then a dialog box appears on the Feature Manager. At First Reference Plane Right click and click on Reference Second Face (outer side of the glass) and then click OK. So now you'll have a new plane parallel to the plane and its location right on the outer side of the glass.


Next you simply make a profile of the top and bottom of the handle glass On this plane, activate the new Plane and make sketches a profile like the picture below.

Now you have managed to make the handle fit the profile and guidenya glass. Because the grip is still half then you need to make a grip again. Use the mirror command to create a copy. Given the body of the handle has not been fully integrated with the body of the glass, then use the Move command to add a long face grip the surface of the glass. To facilitate the Move Face command, hide solid glass bodies first. How, in the Feature Manager there are two Solid Bodies, select the one body that was above and then right click and click hide the dialog box that appears.
