About this model
This is the Thing page for the Screw Library I am working on. I could be talked into releasing it as Public Domain, but have left it as CC-BY-SA for now, at least until it's fully stabilized.

The trapezoidThread module creates the rod along Z, centered in X and Y, but not in Z. Same logic as cylinders with center=false. The parameters are the following: length // axial length of the threaded rod // used to calculate how many turns to create // the rod is NOT trimmed to this length!!! pitch // axial distance from crest to crest pitchRadius // radial distance from center to mid-profile threa…
