I was unsatisfied with how handles were resolving, and I found a solution using quadrics... but then I happened upon another implicit form which is even better,The Darboux Cyclide. The Darboux Cyclide is like a super torus...

I have quite a bit more to learn, but it turns out least squared fitting of the Cyclide worked very similarly to fitting a quadric!
