It was kind of fun to model this for a friend in need.

1. Step 1: Basic Sketch...

   I usually like to start this kind of projects with a basic sketch of the complete shape to be modeled. From that sketch we will use parts of it to generate other sketches with which we will produce results.

   

   
   

2. Step 2: Auxiliary Surface...

   

   
   

   
   

3. Step 3: Generating a Curve...

   

   
   

   
   

4. Step 4: The other two profiles required...

5. Step 5: Mirroring & Solidifying...

   And also shelling...

   

   
   

6. Step 6: Some Rendering...
