Now construction geometry is just like any other piece of sketch geometry with one major exception and that is how it's interpreted when you're applying a modeling action to a sketch. Let's have a look at what that looks like. To begin, we need a new part, I've got a new part on the screen, and we need a new sketch. We can right-click in the graphics window and select new sketch and then hover over the XY plane to begin your sketch.
