I was lead electrical guy until I picked up CAD and some other stuff. Ended with team captain. A title is nothing, it's the knowledge that counts.
For a grove I typically make them about .1" in depth. I put a rectangle on a plane(top, side, of front depending on how you made the wheel) referenced to the "top" of the wheel. Leave some material on each side, and exit the sketch. Then do a revolve cut with the axis of rotation for the wheel as the rotation point. Sorry if that sound complicated. I haven't used CAD in months and it's from memory.
