1. Open up the Toolkit (icon top right corner)
2. Activate the Toolkit (options - Activate Modeling Toolkit)
3. Select the reference object to snap to...
Transform Constraints - Other Surface - (Pick Object)
4. Now tweak the vertices
An easier method uses my Toolkit Marking Menu (ctrl alt d)

to switch off constrained object
ctrl alt d - Constrained Off
