    Here's what you need.  The "Extrude 8020Inc Profile'  custom feature allows you to generate virtually any extrusion profile from a sketch point in a parts studio.  This workflow is far superior to configuring components and importing them from MKCad.  We (Team 293, SPIKE) have been building robots with this tool for the past several seasons.  Here's a link to our Prototype Chassis.  The "Layout and Frame" Parts Studio illustrates our method for defining overall robot geometry and generating extrusion frames using three layout sketches

    8020 profiles are built into the Frame feature.
