Re: Trying to find tutorial for adding features to an imported STEP file
Hey Boneless! You should definitely check out the Direct Editing tutorial in the Learning Center, but specifically I think the "move face" command will really help. You can also do Extrude → New → Up to Part (which will allow you to extrude up to the imported part, but not merge with it.
See examples here for both approaches: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/93b37d6280af4ac2b40f637f/w/2ae827b0b0d3f3ae25a40085/e/2d65e466452ec998207210c0
Re: Trying to find tutorial for adding features to an imported STEP file
The key step is making sure you chose "NEW" not "ADD" when creating the first piece of new 3D geometry, that will give you a new part. The Multi-part Part Studio course will help a ton as well: https://learn.onshape.com/learn/course/fundamentals-multi-part-part-studios
Re: Drawing a corner rectangle centered about the origin
I assume you mean a rectangle without a center? You can use the midpoint constraint with two diagonal points of a rectangle and the origin. Just make sure that the origin is inside the rectangle first.

3D Sketching??
I wanted to know if there is a tool in Onshape that allows you to do 3D Sketching, such as in Solidworks you can use the 3D Sketch tool to draw lines in the Z direction/axis ??

I was able to have it removed by customer support.
