Using Sketch Templates

I created a sketch of my glue joint shaper cutter. Now I want to import it into a model so I can extrude the cut on different edges of a rectangular section. How can I import this section without changing any of its dimensions, and then align it up with the parts so I can remove the material just like the shaper cutter will when I make the part in my shop?
Eventually I'd like to model all my different cutters and build a library that I can use when designing my woodworking projects. I don't want the profiles to change when I copy them into my model. I just want to move them around and place them either by lining things up or by specifying dimensions to key features.

noa Onshape Employees, Developers Posts: 141@rex_hanson, here is a workaround that makes use of "Use" and projecting your sketch into a new sketch so that you can transform and move it to wherever you want.
