I've tried to make a "real" thread using Helix.
To start with something the sketch has not all details, but the main dimensions are M6 x 1.
For this sample i have used Helical Boss with no "core" for first test...
First attempt has 1mm pitch and a sketch with a triangle with 1mm heigth. It "failed" with no warning...
Second attempt has 1mm pitch and a sketch with a triangle with 0.999mm heigth. This worked as expected.
Part with 0.999 heigth is appended. (AD V2018.2)
For metrical threads no real problem because the profile triangle is lower than the pitch...
(Haven't tried it with e.g. Whitworth Tube thread)
Tought maybe the helix should work also with a pitch with same heigth?
What do you think?
Regards
Stefan
