How not to make a coffee cup in Blender.

Call it a memento of Tesla?

I just started playing around with Blender, a few weeks ago, and I found this tutorial for a basic coffee cup, on youtube, which I followed to some degree. But I am not really a fan of the idea of copying others, so I wanted to make a bit extra out of it. And the result was a bit strange, and I have to figure out how actually make the top into a lid. .

But seriously. Who doesn't want a deathray coffee cup?

I'm sure, this is the design Nicola Tesla had in mind, when he came up with his idea for it.
