How do I access construction and other lines after extrusion so that I can work on another physical

Hello I am designing a wave board bu after I extrude I am unable to see the sketch lines on another dimension as a reference to continue the work. I've tried everything from making the sketch translucent to trying the other options in the drop down. Again how does one use lines from sketch 1, as a reference maybe in other sketches? Please help.

    You should be able to use a combination of both sketch and part visibility to show whatever edge or sketch line you need. When you use a sketch for a feature it's automatically hidden, but you can always unhide it. And if your sketch features are being overlapped by 2D or 3D geometry, just temporarily hide the the surface or part that's in your way. You can also use the " ' " or "~" key to select other.

    The sketch used automatically hides after it's used with extrude for the first time. You can go over to the feature tree and click on the eyeball to show the sketch again for use.
