      This technique allows you to make flat crest and root for the thread. I have tried to draw the profile and use the Helix plug-in with the Follow Me And Keep, but they give me a lot of holes, not a solid piece? Here only the helix plug-in is needed.

      Not so exact for everything, but at least I managed to make a coarse M24 inner and outer threads. Perhaps useful for something else than screw threads...

      If someone can make the booleans work to make easily outer thread? Nice! I had to draw the outer thread "by hand"...
