This library fudges the threads badly and does not actually conform to any standards. The threading is mostly for looks. The primary purpose of the library is to supply cutouts and clearances when modeling other objects. I use it for making T-Slots for joining up laser cut parts and making negative recesses for nuts and bolts in 3D printed stuff.

If you would like to make a genuine thread you probably want to look into Dan Kishner's fantastic thread library: http://dkprojects.net/openscad-threads/

It takes a bit of head scratching to translate a standard into his code, but it's pretty well documented overall.

Amazing, thanks Aaron
