RE: how do you use other sketches
You can also make an entire assembly based off a single sketch. The process is called SKELETAL Modeling. It is a very neat process to control an entire assembly from a single sketch. www.sdotson.com has two nice tutorials about the process (among other great tutorials). Sean's a great resource...he also has a discussion forum on his site.
