I can not seem to be able to put individual feature sketches onto a layer. I am trying to do this so I can use my sketches as tool paths for CNC programming.

I can put all solid geometry on layers, turn them off, and "show" the sketch, this works but doesn't seem to be the best way to do it...

I've had to contend with this, mainly for generating wire EDM geometry.

I use "convert entities" to copy sketch entities into a drawing view. This way it is also possible to combine sketches and ignore construction geometry. Model sketches are all hidden afterward.
