The technically correct answer is that a perfect screw thread cannot be modeled in AutoCAD......

I find this topic very interesting. In school we had a project to creat screws (3d thread) in autocad but nobody in my class every got the drawing right. Is there any way possible to create a real 3d thread that spirals perfectly?
