sketching

Extruding in the correct plane
Hello, total newb here who is just learning Onshape from the ground up. What I want to do: I am trying to design what amounts to a fan housing. I have the outer ring done and am trying to add cross pieces so that I can mount the fan itself (imagine a circle with an 'x' across it). How I am trying to do it: I am sketching…
How to bridge two parts?
Is there a way to create a bridge from a face of a solid to another face? I need to join/connect a circle with an oval...
Colinearity constraint?
I may have inadvertently applied SolidWorks thinking to my problem, but is there anything like the "Colinear" contraint for line segments? "Parallel" is almost there, except I can't find how to also constrain a point to lie on the line supporting a line segment.
Reusing the same sketch.
Apologies if this was asked before. I couldn't find it. I need to use different parts (regions) of the same sketch to base different features on. I use SW most of the time and I'm used to that. Is it available now and I don't know how to use it? Or will it be added later?
