extruding from a solid body

I created the profile for all the v-slot compenents I would use for an upcoming project.  The prototype component is only 20mm long.  I need to now get a piece 350 mm long of the same profile.  Is it possible to extrude from the profile WITHOUT redefining the sketch (there by coping over all the lines to create another sketch)?  If I have to retrace and project all the lines to create the sketch, I will, but my experience is that would be kind of tedious for all the components I have.

Good comment!  Thanks

I agree that trial and error is my best approach with fusion.

 

I also have to realize that my capacity to understand things has diminished over time (in my seventies) and I need to be careful not to burden others with my difficulties understanding.

 

Thanks

In a situation like this, some sort of remote desktop solution might of worked best. With realtime audio going back and forth. Correcting any mistakes as you go by, and asking questions when needed.  But it's a problem entrusting a random person of the interwebs with complete control of your computer.
