Hi everyone,
I’ve developed a SketchUp plugin that automates the creation of threaded parts (bolts, nuts, internal threads, etc.).
This tool is universal because it generates threads from a custom tooth profile, making it compatible with any type of thread, including multi-start threads.
I made a demo video showcasing how it works:
The video is in french (turn the YouTube subtitles and auto-translation on) but the extension is multilingual.
Features:
Generate threaded rods, nuts, and internal threads in just a few clicks
Works with any thread profile – metric, imperial, trapezoidal, custom, etc.
Supports multi-start threads
Adjustable pitch, diameter, and length
The plugin is available on two places :
- For the US people, on Gumroad : Threads (Filetages) : Plugin ➡️ SketchUp
- For the EU people, on Payhip : Filetages (Threads) : Plugin ➡️ SketchUp - Payhip
(I made a little portal website easier to share on plugintop.top, but @DanRathbun pointed that the .top domain is globally know as suspicious, beginner mistake ).
If you have the use and want to get it for free, I’m offering a few free licenses in exchange for an honest review here and on the purchase page.
If you’re interested, just send me a message!
Would love to hear your thoughts!
