So I am back with more defining issues .
My Sketch 4 is also giving me problems, everything is black but still under defined?
My process was to draw one wedge and then pattern the others.

Instead of using a sketch pattern. Draw one wedge and then pattern the feature. That is better modeling technique.

Thanks Anna, I am following a text book and this is the way they want it to be done.

You had an extra undefined point at the centre of the sketch pattern. Box select (left to right) over onlt the pattern origin, and hit Delete to have the sketch be fully defined.
See also the attached for an alternative workflow to create a shorter feature tree.
Thanks for the reply's
I like this program a lot and it is fun learning it!
Great to hear. Keep after it. There are many ways to accomplish the end result in SolidWorks. It is good to explore all the many possible solutions.
