Components are just a way to organize multiple parts in the same file. I wouldn’t worry about trying to make his screen match yours exactly.

If you want to do so, you can select your root object (“ford v8 old logo”) and then select Create New Component (like you would create new sketch) and then create sketches in that component. You can drag/drop sketches from outside of the component into it (drop them on the root of the component, not inside of it) to organize.
