Now, look to the sketching toolboxes window and click the sketching tab; this will bring up the sketching menu.

Before we sketch the geometry, let's not something about the problem specification. The geometry itself has two planes of symmetry: it is symmetric about the x-plane and y-plane. This means we can model 1/4 of the geometry, and use symmetry constraints to represent the full geometry in ANSYS. If me model a quarter of the geometry, we can make the problem less complex and save some computational time.

Okay! Let's start sketching.
