| Another Way to Create a
Wine Glass
Start with a cylinder.
Select the bottom face. Use the Extrude Normal command to pull out the face.
With the face still selected, use ScaleUniform to shrink the face.
Deselect the face (click on the face or press the space bar).
Select the upper face and shrink it using ScaleUniform.
To round out the cup, more lines are needed. Change to Edge
selection mode (press "E"). Select one horisontal edge and
press "L" to select all edges around the cup.
Use ExtrudeNormal to create two new edges. Do not
pull out the selected edge. Just left-click to complete the
extrusion.
On more horisontal edge is needed. To create it, select one
vertical edge.
Use SelectSimilar (or press "I") to select all
other vertical edges in the upper part of the cup.
Use Connect to connect the midpoints of the selected
edges, creating new horisontal edges.
Press "V" to change to Vertex selection mode. The edge selection
is converted to a vertex selection. Press "V" three more times
to grow the selection.
Use Tighten to round out the cup.
Clear the selection (press the space bar). Press "F" to change
to Face selection mode. Select the top face. Use Intrude
to make the interior of the cup hollow. To make the "glass"
as thin as possible, complete the Intrude command directly
by left-clicking.
Clear the selection again (press the space bar). Select the
lower face of the cup and use ExtrudeNormal to pull out a stem.
Extrude once more, then use ScaleUniform to enlarge the selected face.
Extrude and scale in the same way again. The wine glass is
finished.
