        So what's your problem in trying to model it in SketchUp? What's not working?

        @Leggy said in help with a thread:

        there are only 4 crests on the thread
        When you model it make it 2 or 3 turns longer so you can cut the extrusion off nicely.

          I’m the problem, ha ha
          I need a back to basics tutorial, I always seem to miss a certain point and nothing happens . I can see the way both of you do the threads but I’m missing something

              ok , after watching Rich's video about 8 times I'm making progress. I was missing the upright extension
              what's curve origin? I set it to -1.5 as in the video, so that made the male thread , now to make the female which ill offset by 0.3

                OK. So you don't need the video tutorial I did? Good enough.
