Maybe define this a little bit further, and once I've got the shape kind of looking what I'd like to have I can then save this out as a reference sketch. So if I just go ahead right here, exit out of that sketch right here, you can see I have this reference sketch. I can click on that sketch and I can show it and I can hide it.
