To avoid such situations I would use Splines to model this.


1. Draw two splines, profile and path.

Two paths: profile (blue) and path (pink).Two paths: profile (blue) and path (pink).

2. Assign Sweep-modifier to the path-object, switch to Use Custom Section and pick the profile-object.

You may want to tick off Smooth Path in the Sweep-settings in order to get sharp corners.
