surely the thread has to cut through the end of the cap otherwise it is just a coil trapped in a coil groove. There is no way for the cap to come off as the groove is not open ended.
Excellent tutorial; however, I think the thread profile should extend past the top so it can get started without interference. It's not that big of a deal with plastic, which has some flexibility, but if these parts were metal the thread couldn't get started. Thanks for the great tutorials, as I always learn something new. Thumbs up!!
Great tutorial, I watched a few custom thread videos and this one seemed to answer more of my questions. And I learned various Fusion skills at the same time; I'm a newbie.
Just watched this one today. Really enjoyed it. Learned a lot. About 8:50 in the video, you used the command key to toggle back and forth. I haven't been able to do that in my windows version. Do you go into any more detail about that feature in any of your other videos? Thanks in advance.... -Hal
Just one question here... should not the thread on the bottle body be starting right from the top so that the cap can 'start sliding' ? Im confused.. please help! Adafruit Industries..
I have a question, what do I need to do if I want to cut the threads at the top and bottom so its flush with the cylinder? You mention its possible at 2:35 in your video. Thanks and great video!
After trying this myself, I tried to print this with no supports and Cura kept telling me I had an overhand angle greater than 50 degrees. How do you make it so that in Fusion 360, the angle can be the standard 45?
Xavi Gomez bro thanks for the reply! did you design on the fusion 360 too ? do the threads need to start from the top edge of the container base ? pls help

I think you need to have the thread touch the top edge so the cap can get started when you twist it on.
I wondered the same.
This was super useful! I am first time using the 360 and already I am making a custom threads on my product!!! Thanks!

Hey Dude. I really enjoy your Fusion 360 tutorials. They are brilliant. Thank you very much 😃😃😃

great tutorial Noe ! Thanks learning a ton
Fantastic Noe!
It is possible to create a big lid 200mm x 200mm ???
How did you do the tactile grooves in the original screw case?
Probably a circular pattern
Where you added the Champers,instead, revolve the profile at end of thread into body (join)

By default, coils with triangular sections are 60 degrees. These should be OK to print just ignore CURA and try printing anyway ;-)
Adafruit Industries I printed yesterday and it worked. thanks :)
Hey do they screw in right ? I was wondering about the threads that go in..
They screw in nicely. 0.3mm offset is slightly loose whereas .2mm offset is a little tight. I think .3 is the best
