ok, done!

just a little tricky... that's what I do:

1- extrude a rod
2- sketch a circle at one planar side of rod with same diameter
3- sketch an helix through the rod (using the circle sketch)
4- 3dsketch copying the helix
5- make plane normal at 3dsketch helix and with initial point at
starting helix (say it right?)
6- sketch the pitch (profile screw) at that plane
7- cut using sketch 6 using 3dsketch as path

I can email the part

thanks

Create nut and screw have helix cut. Add concentric and coincident
relations and you can roll to and forward.

Here is one example http://uploading.com/files/5mde166f/mate.zip/
