When ThreadMaker is open, re-generating new thread dimensions and dragging copies into your project is done in 5 mouse clicks plus 3 to 6 data entries (or less, if you have the Part->Make Simple Copy icon on your toolbar). Entering thread dimensions is a mouse-less activity, since the spreadsheet cursor automatically jumps down to the next input cell when you hit enter.

DEPRICATED:
***************************************
ThreadMaker 1.0 Macro Set is completed.
***************************************
It fully supersedes this sketch and spreadsheet driven tool, and fully automates all the "table-lookups" needed to generate an ISO standard thread. It also features the full custom functionality of ThreadMaker4.1, plus includes global thread disable/enable to avoid delays during design work.
